MN deer opener reporting
Spent Saturday and Sunday morning in a couple stands. A half hour before shooting hours I heard a few walking towards the stand. It's thick as hell but I could hear leaves rustling and grunting. It's still 80% dark but I grabbed my rifle just to confirm the scope magnification was at 3x but as I did that they duffed off. Then an hour later, as the sun was half over the horizon, I suddenly had to take the worst dump. I only got about 40 yards from the stand before I let it loose. So then I'm thinking "all the deer can smell my shit" which made me less confident in spending time there. So I stalked all day and spent the evening in the pic related stand. I saw six deer in total all weekend and they were all a long ways away and running. Our group saw 20 deer but all does except a spiker.
