LOOOOOONG DAY
I went in at 7:30 this morning and had 1 or 2 deer lightly blow at me from under my stand.I did not see it/them.
From that point,I sat in the stand untill 12:00,got out and took about an hour nap at the base of my tree [8D]and then climbed back in.I sat untill dark 30 and saw NOTHING all day.NOTHING,NADA,ZIP.
Logged about 10 hours on stand today and I picked the wrong spot.Thought for sure that the bucks would be pushing the does around just aggrivating the crap out of them,boy was I wrong.
I saw deer when I was driving down the road this morning and on the way home but NONE while on stand.
Man I'm beat.

RE: LOOOOOONG DAY
And thats why they call it hunting
Hey even though you didn't get any luck on a ten hour sit you have to realize you are greatly increasing your odds by hunting all day to harvest a nice deer!!That patience will really pay off. Good luck to ya

RE: LOOOOOONG DAY
I didn't get to hunt yesterday because I was with the kids doing their things soI thought with the moon being almost full that I would see something mid day so I said to myself,I will make up for yesterday.[&:]
To make things worse,I was in the smallest standI had but atleast it is setup for comfort.
