They pissed me off tonight!!!
Well to start things off. I get to my spot and find the adjacent property owner and 2 vehicles parked 40 yards from my stand. I dropped my corn and then proceeded to ask them what they were doing. As I walked up to them a big german sheppard runs up to me( great) . He said they were cutting wood. Now it was already 3pm. I think even better!!! Chain saws running, gass cans, people walking, trees falling and a dog running around. The guy said they were about to leave. I was furious. I sat at teh truck and fumed for a while. I Then said screw it and grabbed my gun. I went in anyway. It was 4pm. It wasnt long and I had the first visitor.
I wasnt planning on doing much but it started out ok.
Next thing you know, here they came.
Then I snapped. I figured I was going to take advantage of the situation.
Here is one of the not so lucky!!
I had more come before dark. It was happening so fast I didt have time for pictures.

Deer aften get used to what is going on in their range area. I never where cover sents and rearly where camo. I have friends who go all out and I still shot as many if not more deer then them. Before I quit smoking I killed 2 just after I had a smoke on the stand and 1 while smoking a cig. (the wind was blowing right them) Deer just get used to what ever is around them and don't spook quite as easy as many think.

Just this past summer I was out checking cameras and I kicked up a very young buck, in velvet, maybe had a 2-3 inches on him, and I literally followed this buck around my timber doing mouth calls to him. Their was times when I got 10 yards and closer to him. But he never ran off. Just slowly walked away.

sometimes if im runnin late, ill ask the guy to go brush hawg..i really believe it keeps the deer out until i get there, when he see's me climb in stand, he parks the tractor and goes to the house, usually bout 30-45 minutes, the deer walk out.

I knew an old farmer that said he got his buck every year while brush hogging. He'd let the golden rods grow in some of his rotated fields all year, then brush hog and get one in november. Never actually saw him do it, but that was his story.
