I went to sit in wife's stand last night for some relaxing time.  Doe decided to come see me, thought at one point she was gonna try to stick her head in the window.  If I had been packing either my pistol or lever .357 I might have shot her, more likely I still wouldn't have.  Played some "God Bless the USA" loudly on my phone for her, she came closer.  Finally ended up just telling her she needed to just go away.  She looked at me like I was an idiot (I know that look).  She finally got bored I guess and wandered off.

I had several shot opportunities on does the first day, but passed since we already had two deer to deal with. Now that I'm ready to bust a mature doe, I can't get one to show up! Funny how that works.

Very True.  One year after seeing tons of squirrels everywhere I decided to set there and shoot squirrels.  You can probably guess how that worked out.  No squirrels and lots of deer out at about 75 yards.  

I have named this doe Cindy Lou.  When I got home about dark last night she had come up to the pond just below the house. I yelled at her a few times and she finally slipped back into the brush.   I think maybe my wife (or possibly my neighbor) killed her boyfriend and now she is suicidal and hoping I will end it for her.

Every time. Wantin' deer & squirrels everywhere, taunting me, take a .22 out, intent on gettin' some tree rat for the stew pot & not a squirrel in sight.

Turkeys are the same way. Can’t find a gobbler to save my life in the spring but watched 9 gobblers peck and scratch around me all evening a few days ago.
