Default Opening day... sucked

I got up at 4am to start getting ready. I positioned myself on my property where I could see my deer trail that crossed my land and went to my neighbors(I have permission to hunt there too).

Well about 30 minutes before sunrise, I started hitting my fawn bleat. a few minutes later I got a reply. It was still too dark to see her, but I could her that doe. She was trying to find me. It started to lighten up. I finally see some color, but i wanted to wait a few more minutes so it would get a little brighter and I could get a good lung shot. Then all of a sudden my neighbor's son guns his truck right up his father's field doing about 60. I turned my head to see what was going on (my fault) and that doe snorted and ran up the mountain. Well I spent the rest of the morning hunting and didn't see her, but I heard some bucks playing. I couldn't get them to show.

Good thing, my neighbor's son didn't harvest a deer either.

Sound familiar.I hunt in the suburbs and often joggers ,dog walkers ,lovers mess me up.But then they can often chase me the deer. The smell from the lovers does attract bucks

SEEMS LIKE SOMETHING LIKE THAT HAPPENS EVERYTIME ... I THINK ITS A PREREQUISITE IN THE COUNTRY THAT YOU EITHER HAVE A TRUCK WITH NO MUFFLER THAT YOU FIRE UP RIGHT AFTER DAY LIGHTOR AN AUTOMATIC 22 THAT YOU START SHOOTING ABOUT 30 MIN BEFORE DARK ...

i love it when things like that happen.
Hunting jsut off a field whent he neighbor decides its time to tear up the field on his wheeler.
Or sititng on watch on private property, and two women and a dog go walking down the old tractor road, having a nice loud chat, scaring everything in the woods.
