I was thinking about doing that. I'm going to give it till next week and wait for a morning hunt opportunity.
Can you alter your route to where you go around them? You might have to change your e it route sometimes even if it makes you walk another 200-500 yards. If it's a killer set I would do whatever it took to enter or exit it with as little disturbance as possible. Some place due to lack of accessibility on neighboring property I know it's not possible but if you can I'd do it in a heartbeat. Good luck Ryan!!

I may try and hang/relocate my stand to a better entry/exit spot to the North since I keep spooking deer on the south side. And on the North side there are a huge row of BlackBerry bushes to help screen my route out.
If you are in SW Ohio and need help tonight or in the morning, PM and I'll send you my number.

Went out after church and did some midday scouting on public land, then sat for the evening and saw one little buck
Good luck, hope you have a short track job.... Did you have good blood
I got skunked for the first time this season....

I was wondering the same thing..... Hopefully they're dragging it out now....
Just had 2 8pt come thru. 35yds. Bigger probably was 125. Watched them spar 40 or 5yds away. Pretty cool.
Thanks you so much for the offer. I'm in Columbus area. I will post an update this morning but the cliff notes version is we had good blood and bedded him around 11:30 and called it off for the night. Unfortunately can't get back out until this afternoon cuz of work. Ugh. He's bedded up in a shady area so hopefully he'll still be ok meat-wise
I'm finally out for my first sit. I put up a new ladder stand a week ago or so & I've been itching to get out. Beautiful morning.
Just had another 1.5yr old buck stroll thru. Was thinking about wrapping it up and getting to work. Nope. That will keep me here until 10. Lol. Bit surprised I haven't seen any does yet.
Near zero wind today. Have had deer on all sides of me. Nothing but relaxed for every one of them. All within 50yds. Stand placement seems to be as good as I can do while still having cover. Visibility is not the best but is adequate. Nothing has seen me yet and I am up, down, peeking around tree, etc to check lanes. Didn't spook anything on way in is always a plus. Being in tree an hour before legal light helps. So far I am digging this stand set.

And there goes my year and a half again. Poor boy is lost.
Good luck Kevin and the rest of you guys out this morning.
