Default The perfect setup

For the last three days I have had 1 or more does bed down in front of my stand.
I have had 8 hours of does in front of me, two of them had pretty dark tarsels glands.

I keep saying it's only matter of time.
So far two bucks showed up, and they were buttons

I have still yet to see a mature deer(3.5 older). I have a 2.5 8 pretty well pegged on his pattern. I have yet to see any buck chase a doe. I passed 3 does on the river tonight bedded down, not a buck in sight.

I have no idea what to do[8D]

I have come to peace, that the two 2.5 I have seen(8 point and 11 point) are kings this year. There is 0 sign of a hog[:@]

I had six does under me tonight for a while, too....and one bedded down and hung out for 50 minutes. I had one buck show up.....but no shot op.

Going to an old haunt tomorrow....just to give the new land a rest....and me. I'm tired. I need to regroup....and have some fun. I'm gonna take a book.....take a good snack......rest in my tree....and shoot whatever I want that might show. Or....I moght just watch, also.

Going in early to take a good nap....talk to my maker....and relax.

Hope you get the one you want, Gary.
