Live from the stand 2021

[FL Plotter]

Hunted yesterday morning in Northwest Florida...about 44 when I walked in at 0500. Saw about 8 deer or so and had a shooter 4.5 year old 6pt come in around 0900. Decided to pass him up. Here's a video I took posted on Instagram:

Nice looking plot there FL. I expect you’ve put a lot of sweat into that !

Yessir. 13 years of trial and error...I think we've got a pretty good system down. I've got a complete video documentary of our plotting on a playlist over on YouTube if you want to check it out. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLG5yS75HLzo3B_kuSLkG7zUbMJ22vw4GS

Well not from the Stand, but my SIL went up to get in a last few weeks hunt.

Had his chances to take a Buck, but did not shoot.

First night there in one of the new stands I set up just for this time of year that overlooks a thicket with Scrapes, a nice Wide Buck came through and gave him a Broadside Shot, but when he moved to get set up he knocked his Pack off of the seat and it tumbled to the Ground--scaring the Buck away. Lesson Learned to ALWAYS secure your pack.

Last day there he was in the Stand I shot my Buck out of and a Big Bodied Tall and Wide Racked Buck came through "nose to the ground" and he didn't get on him fast enough to get a shot. Said it was the Biggest Buck he has seen.

So it looks like the improvements are starting to pay off. See what the next Season Brings.

I’ve had one or two of those “oh crap” moments too, so I know how he feels. Then you wonder how in the world you let that happen !
