Working on my new stand ... deer are in the woods!

The last couple days while riding through the woods on my Mountain Bike, I've stopped to relax and do some fishing. I have about 40 blue gills and sunfish in the fridge and freezer.

Today I saw a skinny looking doe just as I was riding into the gun club at the south side of the 550 acre woods. I enjoyed watching her for a while, and decided on the way back that I'd check out my new stand location and do some more work on it. And I saw Bambi ... looking real good right there by the new ladder stand that I'm putting up by a tree. I swear that it was Bambi ... all covered with white spots the whole deal ... and maybe the whole meal deal for the papa buck in the Fall! I've seen several good looking rubs on trees around there, too!

Now the tough part is going to be the decision as to which of my three stands I should use! [:D]

    Yes, I suppose the wind direction could be a factor, but the wind around here is not very stable.

    I saw the doe at the very same place this morning (two days in a row!) ... and she did not look quite so skinny when I looked her over good today. The legs are skinny but the * is OK.

    Bambi was MIA. [:)]

    The sighting is unique because he knew he was safe. I remember using deer stands for tree rodent hunting. I usually saw more deer when i was hunting other game.
