i am always getting busted on by my hunting buddies for this, "why the #@%# do you walk in at 3-4AM???"

i have been "snorted" at a few times and does have blown so loudly, it is disheartening

i did read recently where this one guy runs like all get out to his stand, right before sunrise (or at least when he can see), through the woods...he says it sounds like a buck chasing a doe (with the exception of a 200lb dude, huffing and puffing at the base of the treestand )

it happens, now you know
