10/17 Morning hunt

Landowner where I hunt was waiting at my truck and gave me this mount. first deer killed on property 25 years ago.

Went this morning and saw 2 right at 8am. Only problem was that mamma deer saw me first and kept staring at my stand. Couldn't get a shot on her or little one with her. About 40 yards or so and good breeze coming off the lake. Guessing she got a partial winding on me. Nothing this evening; but a nice day in the woods.
 
Saw three this evening. Pretty sure there were two does. Third one I couldn't be sure, but I know there is a scrape and a rub where I saw the third. All were out of range. I'm huntin' with iron sights on a primitive front stuffer.
 
I walked by 5 scrapes; but no rubs that I have seen so far. Didn't want to go stomping looking for any since we only hunt 64 acres and it is easy to change their patterns if you aren't careful.

If there are 5 scrapes then you are in a good position. Stay near the does and the bucks will come.
