Looks like a great spot.
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

left hand view . Image

right hand view . Image


had three doe come in from the right at 5 pm

they were wasting no time cutting across the field, I took a long shot at one and missed right over her back.

instead of scaring them off, this made them very curious, they all trotted in close to see what the bow noise was. If I had an automatic bow, one would be down!!

by the time I was able to dock another arrow without detection two of them had moved out of range, one knew something was up and stayed close by to stomp and snort and try to circle behind me for about a half hour. eventually she gave up and trotted off to join her friends.


I have never tried hunting white tail like this before and it has been a lot of fun but also very frustrating. If i would had set my chair up 10 yards farther ahead those deer would have came in at spitting distance.

I would love to hear some advice on where and how to choose a spot for a ground sit or stand location.

Look for a spot where your game will have to funnel through a narrow spot while moving from bedding, feeding or water. A pinch point.
That would be one thing.

I always try to find a big tree trunk to either brush in a blind or simply set up my stool behind (downwind). A split trunk works great as you can shoot between the trunks. You don't care if you are visible from the backside of the tree because they're gonna wind you before they see you anyway.
