First sit in one of the new stands. I arrived at 5:57 (sunrise is 7:02).
Just before shooting light, a buck the went behind the blind--snorting all of the way.
Two other deer (I believe a doe and her fawn) went by the blind before shooting light and busted me.
These four hung up at 35 yards, and knew something was wrong, but did not panic. They ended up going north, then west onto the neighbors property. I'll let this blind sit for a month, and will narrow the wind chart, as I believe the treeline is taking this morning's westerly wind north and south along the blind's treeline.
I’m back in the stand. We currently have a south wind that will be changing to a north wind by 7:30 PM. That makes the blind choice limited, so I’m hunting a section of land where my scent will hopefully into the soybeans. .
Sorry for a late reply. No, he wasn't there, but the other big ones are still around and coming in legal shooting light. Right now I'm only interested in hunting him, so I'm taking a few days off and seeing if he comes back when our weather changes. Starting tomorrow we are supposed to get rain and cooler weather. However, the beans could be harvested any day now which isn't likely to be a good thing.
