Pappy:
She just likes being close to Greg,cause she knows the food couldn't be far away,I will keep her up next time.She can find me no matter where I go on the farm,and no matter how long I have been gone.  ;) ;D Of course she can do the same with a wounded deer. :)

I sure wouldn't mind seeing here track a deer down. Must be quite a sight!

Postman:
back before the trad bug bit me, (there's a GOOD  insect to get stung by ;D...) Had a big (350 lb or so is big for here) black bear follow doe - in -heat lure in like a dog to 15 feet of my ground blind. Stood up and said "dude- don't make me shoot you!" and pointed my .308 at him. He stood there for a few seconds and ambled off.
He was out of season by 10 days.  >:(

I use to use coon urine as a cover sent one fall morning while sitting in my tree stand as first light was coming up ,I began to hear the sound of leaves crunch and rustle in the rhythmic pattern.As MY heart began to beat faster and faster and the anticipation of what was about to unfold I began to strain my eyes searching for the deer that I knew would soon fall plight to my arrow .But know matter how hard I strained my eyes I could not see the deer by now the crunch of leaves was a crescendoing  noise I knew they had to be close.And thats when I looked down and two of the biggest Racoon's I have ever seen were sniffing around and around the base of the tree I was sitting in. As the adrenaline surged to its maximum force and fear was great  suddenly reality hit me it was not a deer that would fall plight to my arrow  this fall morning.But me that would fall plight to these Racoon's

I was screwing in my last tree step about 12 feet up a cedar tree about 20 years ago. I leaned back against my pole climbing harness, next thing I knew I was on the ground with a broken back and wrist. Sure wasn't expecting such a quick trip to the ground.
