I know that sometimes non hunters do get on your nerves. But on public land, this can and does happen. Some years ago, I was in my stand way before daylight. Around 7:30 a.m. I hear walking coming towards me. You guessed it, another hunter going through the woods trying to find a place to hunt. As far up the tree as I was, I didn't make a sound and I just let him pass through. Maybe 10 or 15 minutes later, I had deer all around me, and they came from the way the guy had walked passed me. Sometimes things like this can realy help your hunt. Ray
