My buddy said the same thing once.I agreed at the time but now I would have to say that I don't have 2000 tv's or pictures hanging on my walls. I don't know if deer take inventory of the trees and see what is out of place. I think there is so much out your outline is just a fly on the wall. If you get busted it's because of smell or movement. Just my 2 cents.

Let's put it in perspective...in your world...

If you walked into your living room and your TV was shaped differently what would you do? If there was something on your wall that was out of place what would you do? You would know fellas!

Guys...the deer know when something is out of place...you are in their home...you are on their grounds....its just like in your home....you know when something is not in the right place...

Stand in line then.
Sure thing, Pal.

But in chess.. you make a move and your opponent plays back to your move. And makes a move. I've never had a deer know what I was doing (except once) and then make a "move". Have you?
Yes, several times, I explained one in my previous post.

Usually.. and correct me if I'm wrong. We set up in a funnel or what not.. and play the waiting game. Because I'll tell you his move everytime is... RUN LIKE HAITIS.... after he knows your move.
You know as well as I do that a deer can find your set up after you are gone, without really seeing you. He may then alter his path by a few yards to avoid that set up without "RUNNING LIKE HAITUS". Your next "move" would be to a new set up and try again.

BTW, I do not set up IN funnels, I set up in the mouths or big ends of the funnels so as not to get busted and ruin the funnel.

So you set up near funnels.. my bad.

But from where I can stand... it sure looks like a funnel to me.

Although I play stupid at times. I do know in fact that your little piece near me is in fact a funnel.

Its a little piece of woods between 2 big chunks o' woods. I believe thats called a funnel. Why do you take offense in this... I do not know.

I love you Greg.. you know I do. But sometimes I don't think you get enough air up there in that high chair of yours.[8D]
I wasn't taking offense at this at all..... but now I am, you're starting to piss me off.

Talk about lack of oxygen to the brain...... you should be in a comma by now.

I'll say it really slow..........

I sit in the ENDS of the funnel!!!

NOT the middle.

Did you understand it that time??!!

Okay. I guess we can play this.

If I recall.. your little piece thats near me has a bottleneck.. or funnel (On its north end). Your stand.. is in the middle.. for the most part.

Am I missing something.

Yes, you are missing a lot. The piece is bigger than you think and the largest end of the funnel is on the South end.

When I say I hunt the ENDS of the funnel, what is there that you can't grasp about this!!??

For the last time......MY STAND IS NOT IN THE MIDDLE.

Did you really think that you knew where my stand(s) are better than me!!??

That's an awfully small woodlot, Greg. I just had a question.....

The other day you mentioned in another thread seeing 7 bucks in one sitting. I'm not sure if it was there or not.....but you posted up some charts and such from your logs on the anomoly of the occurrence.

How many days did you hunt for whitetails in '07?

I hunt small parcels, too.....and that just seems phenomenal.
