[QUOTE="slas, post: 2911736, member: 39669"] I trekked into my new hunting spot loaded down with my ghostblind in one hand, bow in the other and all my gear on my back. By time I got to my spot I was sweating like a pig and all my face camo was gone. I couldn't help thinking about all that wasted time with scent control now that I was soaking wet with sweat. After a few hours behind the blind I finally saw a group of does grazing their way towards me. As I positioned myself with my bow just right I heard some type of farm equipment near where I was, they all jerked their heads up and sprang away. I was worried about the wind though, it seemed to be swirling and changing from S SE to SW. How frustrating to be all ready to get it done and poof, chance gone. Anyway, I decided to go for a little scouting trip to get to know the area a little better and after fighting the thorn vines and heavy cover I was scratched up and soaking again. I didn't hunt last October and I have to say, it was cooking me. The good thing is I did see deer and I'll be better positioned next time. I was a little too far from where I needed to be. Of course after I set up near where they came out, they'll come out from the other side. Isn't that how it always goes? I'll be trying my luck again next Saturday, or Sunday morning depending on which has the better weather. Still have to put in that honey do day. [/QUOTE]
