Well finally today I had some heart pumping action. Around 8 a little doe comes running diagonally down the hill through the honeysuckle and stops below me in the ravine. Seconds later I hear grunting from the area where she first appeared. I grab my Xbow off the hook, flip off the safety and see a spike buck following the same path as the doe travelled, it was grunting all the way down the hill. They followed the scrip but they were the wrong players!!!


Around 11:40 I heard something walking down the hillside to my right. The hill is covered with honeysuckle so I couldn't see what it was until it crossed the ravine about 100 yards to my right. It was a big buck with tall dark tines! As he eased up towards the head of the ravine I grabbed my grunt tube and grunted. He kept slowly walking through the honeysuckle. I grabbed my rattling bag and rattled, he kept walking. I kept grunting and eventually he stopped, but he didn't commit and come my way!!! I stayed until 1:00 hoping that maybe he would circle around behind me or maybe he would find a doe and chase her my way.
