Got in a no bait rut funnel 3pm.  Already had group of does wind me and snort 200 yards behind me.  Prob took the buck I want with them.  It’s a miracle I ever kill a good buck.  I just stink to high heaven.

Same thing happens to me.  There are so many deer around that some are going to smell you.  The snorting is what pisses me off!  Tattletails!!

Glad I'm not hunting in this crap.  Down to 24 degrees for Saturday morning and permit bow!

I know it sounds wierd but several times I have seen does snort to keep bucks away.  The 8 I killed last year before he came in I had a doe snort 4 or 5 times but didn't run.  Whe she left he came in

I have seen does snort at bucks. Cats. Foxes. Coyotes and bears. Bunt mostly - me.  They really hate my stank. There was no doubt  this was from me

Out in blind with my daughter again.  Buck cruising other side of creek when we snuck in.  He chased off the does last night but never gave her a shot.  Hope he returns tonight

[JHbowhunter]

Another big doe and her fawns got in  behind me downwind.  She just couldn't let it go. Had to sound alarm at prime time.

This rain just wont let up down here at the shore. I think its raining harder now than when I got in thank god for the groundblind at least I'm dry. Hopefully something moves in the last hour

Last night I went for a ride and there were deer all over the place. Tonight I went and sat in a friends old barn and only saw an undernourished doe fawn with its spots still showing through. She looked lost and confused.

I sat greybeard style tonight, natural ground blind, plenty of deer movement and opportunity but not the right kind.  I had a big doe come by at 10 feet, when she hit my wind her eyes almost bulged out of her head and then a squirrel almost ran up my arm, six more inches he would of got cracked in the head with my range finder, sitting on the ground is dangerous...lol

3 does. Nothing else

Almost got a chance at a nice nine pointer at last light. He was coming into my last 3 grunts I made, but hung up making a rub and a scrape until way after shooting light.
