An unemployed Jester, is nobody's Fool.
the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

He sure is...Biggest buck he has ever taken...and I almost smoked one later that day in a different location right before sundown but just could not get the right site picture with the tiny corrective peep I have on my string...Not as grand as the earlier buck but a shooter for sure....seasons early

Congrats! Now your a hero to him for the rest of his life. Your kind gesture will be told for years by him and his family. Although gratifying as it is, it sucks when someone else kills the deer you've been hunting. May you be blessed to kill a bigger one.

It's all good...I'm confident I will cross paths with a "Keeper" before long and it will end badly for him...I hope !!!

Thanks guys....Not a guide hookeye ( not nearly that good) and no charge for my pals:)...half the fun is getting the spots, figuring out how to set up properly and believe it or not I enjoy reading terrain/ picking out trees/ hanging stands /climbing sticks/ clearing shooting lanes etc....this afternoon I used my lone wolf climber on a new piece and had a non typical 9 pt right under me (no shooter), a seven pass by at under 15 yds and 2 smaller bucks sparing in the distance...Takes me awhile sometimes to get the hang of a new place...I think I have this one figured out for next time....and I know there is a POPE who frequents this spot(might save this one for me).

Looks like he was up there a ways by the entry....nice shot! What is that down-spout from? Was the stand hanging on the deck??
