Got our first snow accumulation yesterday(4" ). Left work early to get on stand by 2:30. With the nasty weather, deer were moving/feeding heavily. Had deer at stand as I arrived, they left and with 10 minutes had other deer back in their place. Does came and went for next hour and a half. Had laid estrus out on trails coming in, around stand and also " active scrape" scent at several scrapes near stand. Refilled my dripper over my mock scrape also. Did some light rattling/calling and had 3 smaller bucks respond minutes after. The big 10 pointer came out at 50 yds, but a doe came out also and he took off after her without returning. Half hour before dark, a nice 6 pter came in with his nose to the ground following my scent trail. went to the mock scrape I made, pawed the scrape and pissed some, then came to my spot I set for him. stopped at the raccoon scent I laid(works great to get them to stop where you want them), Head down, 30 yds, dble lunged him, ran 60 yds and died on his feet. The snow made tracking a breeze. Pass through had him spraying blood from both sides. It don' t get no easier than this.(should be a beer commercial). That' s deer #4 this year so far. have seen 9 different bucks in 4 days off my 3 different stands in this area. Rattling has brought in 5 of the bucks(atleast they showed within 5 minutes after I stopped rattling). Have turned several by calling. The big 10 pter is definately P&Y if he offers me a shot. I' m not a trophy hunter, but this may be the first deer I' m gonna go after for the rack. Happy Hunting! Steve
