Sure do Deercamp. I belong to a hunting club in Baltimore Maryland but I live in NE Indiana. Anyway every few years I go home to see my family and hunt with the guys. Opening day is Saturday and I was in a stand with nothing going on. That evening one of the guys told me he had to work Sunday and I was welcome to hunt his ground blind if I wanted to ( the offer was made to another member who declined ). The next morning it was cold and raining. The blind sits on the left side of a logging road. Warrior stepped out of the right side of the road on a trail and LOOKED RIGHT AT ME. I almost dirte'd my pants. I took aim and he fell in his tracks. At first I thought he was an 8 point. About 10 minutes later he started moving his head and trying to get up. Oh crap now what. I called everyone in the area and told them I was going to walk to my deer and shoot him again, We have a rule unless an emergence no walking until 8:30). When I got to him I was hopping like a kid in a chunky cheese. I counted the points, 12. That's how it happened and now he is on my wall.
