well had a doe come in only in stand for about 30 mins.

I was going to take her she fed for an hour or so, worked her way towards me getting closer and closer very slowly.

Guess what, a bobcat comes out of opposite ridge line, goes straight toward the doe, and the doe FREAKED OUT! Blew and took off like a bat out of hell.

I passed on a smaller buck later in the evening.

Bobcats are protected in Ohio. They'll put you under the jail for that one.

What is weird guys, is I have actually seen them before walking to and from my stands on my own property.

This was the first time on this one tho, I dont think it was going to try and kill the deer, just saw it and perked up like lets check this out.

It was big though, I was able to see it 200+ yards across this field hunting for mice I would guess.
