Mike those are some sweet deer.
I went last sat morning with C-ratt. I was in my stand about 5 minutes and another guy came stalking by. About 10 minutes after that a forkhorn walked in. He started crossing from my left to my right which was great for me , cause I am a left hand shot and could have shot him while still sitting. However it sounded like fourth of july out there, we were hunting a pheasant stocked WMA, and he soon changed direction to pass me on the left. That meant I would have needed to stand and turn to shoot him. When he passed by me , I slowly stood up, and he swung his head around. I was frozen for what seemed like minutes, when he finally started to walk again. By the time I swung around the tree and got to full draw , there were too many trees to take a shot. I was very bummed cause we have seen no deer this year,and our usual place has little sign.Well after the deer made its way past me, it ended up going by C-Ratt's stand near the swamp, but he could not get a shot at it either. Oh well there still another month.
