Snuck into the stand a few minutes before first light Friday morning. Barely got my bow hung up and had a buck cruising by at 100 yards. It was still just a bit dark, so I waited till he got past me and I grunted 2 soft grunts. He spun on a dime and circled the hell out of me but never winded me and eventually left. No sooner than he was gone, another buck came across the cut corn about 200 yards out and out of a little patch of grass stood a big buck, I believe an 11 point we have on camera, and a smaller doe. That big boy kept steering her away from the smaller buck, and eventually another medium sized buck started circling as well. That big buck just kept them at bay and eventually pushed her back into my section, but the went the other way. So there are a few coming in now. Cant wait to get back out there
