Post by: Sandberm on November 27, 2018, 04:13:43 PM: Waited for the rain to let up this morn b4 i got out at 9a.m. Gave me a chance to read a few more pages Of Men and Mountains.

Put my plan in action an snuck up to 20yds on what turned out to be a spike buck with no legal friends. I was happy about getting close.

Later i saw a small 3x3 chasing a couple of does. I guessed his escape route perfect but was about 2 minutes late getting in position.

Afternoon was spent wasting my time trying to get close to a doe. Tired an spent and figuring the area was blown out i made a b line for my truck 3 miles away. Fatigued, l screwed up and could have gotten a doe 50yds from the road. I was tired, my senses shot...sigh.

Overall, i did some things right. Try again tomorrow. Good luck to the others out there trying. :hello:
