I feel your frustration GMMAT! I have 27 sits so far (205hrs), almost half of them all day sits (11-12hrs) and no buck yet. I've NEVER put this kind of time in before. It was fun.I don't second guess myself because I've done everything the way I believe I should have.My stand has produced nicely in the past, it's just that the rut didn't go on as it normally does for whatever reason.[&o]Guess what. I'm just going to have to kill an Alberta big boy, that's all there is to it!After all, I still have regular buck season coming up Dec 1st, and my area is bowhunting ONLY!! Yougotta to love that.
