I constantly look for deer, ill tell you i dont know how many times i get in my stand and start looking and all of the sudden i see a movement and it is a deer that i would have never seen if i wasnt looking hard, that is what keeps me interested, although this archery season i didnt see much, it was a dissapointing one for me, but if you constantly scan the area for deer it keeps you awake, just remember it only takes a couple of minutes for a deer to walk behind you or in front of you for that matter, and if you dose off just for a couple of minutes, that could cost you!!!!!
