Took my neighbor for his 1st actual hunt. He seen does last week and got excited. I told him just wait until you can shoot. Well, he shot today. Under a big doe. He said he was shaking soooo bad that he couldn't think



He was mad at himself but I explained to him some pointers that may help him next time. I just told him its a good thing it wasn't a buck.
And for me, I sat in stand that I didn't really want to because the wind was terrible. But I wanted to try my decoy and I hoped for the best. Right at shooting time I had 4 does come out investigating the decoy. I wasn't going to shoot a doe but I figured that was some good live bait out there. Just a few minutes later I caught a glimpse of a buck going the other direction. After that a deer must have caught wind of me, sounded the alarm and the fields cleared out. So I ended up ditching the decoy in the weeds for next week.
