My opening day on Quantico went with two does passing by about 8:45 then nothing. I sat on stand till 11am and decided to move to a trail that might have a little more action thinking the deer just haven't been pushed this far back yet.Boy was that a big mistake with the temps close to 80 I was sweating to much to waste a spot.

So with that kind of temps I guess I made the right call. sometimes I think why not go hunt that spot -stinking , bad wind or what ever because on public land you don't know who might just be in that same area before. so what do you all think about that. would you hunt it just to beat someone to the deer. you can but a lot of time into scouting and come to find some else was in there the day before.its a hard call for me.Thanks

Good luck And have a safe season
