Went out again in a stand I haven't hunted for a while, and the wind was just right (10-15mph out of the east/southeast). About 5:00pm a mature doe and two fawns came out in the field and began feeding (the yearlings have been chased away yet, so the rut is still just beginning). Saw another 5 doe sneak down about 70yards through some thick brush (came in downwind...never smelled me). THEN...right at dark as I was getting down, I got busted by a deer I NEVER heard come in or saw, and it was only 40-50yds away. Couldn't tell if it was a buck or doe. Needless to say...still waiting on the bucks (where are they!![&:]). Plus I have to rest that stand a while now after getting busted...phew....this bowhunting isn't so easy now is it

How was everyone elses evenings out?

I hunted almost all day. Out at noon back at 3. Nothing at all. Wind was swirling in both stand locations today. I like the morning spot but wind swirls everytime I hunt it. Was supposed to be a south wind.

No luck yet with a buck yet either hope activity picks up soon. Im off to hunt all
next week.

Last saturday and sunday hunted till11;oo didn't see a thing , I'm hoping to get out saturday and sunday againi hope things start to pick up soon starting to get depressed. To night went out to see if i could see anything out in the feilds but nothing that was right at dark .One of these days i'm going to buy a spot light so i can see what out there.

Press on my friend, I am in that boat with you. Keep the faith bud, unless these does are are without certain parts of their anatomy, the bucks will come.
