Just had one fellow come out he had his stand on his back I guess he didn't see what he was looking for. That makes three of us (dad said he is at 0 so far)

Well I moved again this time to a cove on the lake with fresh tracks everywhere and as I was going down the trail I bumped 2 deer saw another as soon as I got to the edge of the woods an then had one run around the edge of the woods and almost into my lap no shot yet the last one was just a bit to close for comfort ( 5 ft)
