RE: Hunting buddies.......Things you can't control?
Yes, there is someone our group that, for example, does not practice the same scent control or pay attention to the wind before selecting a stand. Fortunately, he only hunts out of 2 or three stand locations. Once he's been in those stands, I dont' go back.
On the positive side of that, I've been able to locate the areas the deer use to get around his stands.
