[QUOTE="db-2, post: 230918, member: 4743"] To follow up on what my son did. It had a lot to do with the terrain he was working plus there was a small field (maybe 10 acres at most) of green whatever in that area. The mule deer where coming, again due a lot to the lay of the land, a couple of different ways to that field where the greens where growing. So it was just a matter of sitting up shop(it was a ways away from the greens), hoping they continue to use that same path which they did as they had been doing. Not sure if that is patterning but one sits and watch and one should be able with some luck to outsmart a deer in time. My last hunt 3 years ago for my granddaughter(on land next to a mule deer unit). Spent 6 days out there looking with very little luck the first few. A rancher then inform me that the deer will come from the high ground to the north on his land and come down one of those draws in the morning to bed up in the valley. So I sat and sure enough they would come that way. On the six day in the morning five bucks came, I was quite a ways away but watch three bed down in one area and two in another area(also watch 2 hunters with ones son walk within 300 yards of the bucks I was after, they turn before they got to the deer). My son and granddaughter left earlier in the morning and got out there at 1:30. She had a school function the night before. Two hour stalk to within 163 yards and by 3:30 the guts where on the ground. Priceless and who knows, maybe her only mule deer hunt in her life. On a side note she had clear this trip with her volley ball coach. Missed practice on Monday and on Tuesday the coach told her she would not start any more. Coaches for the most part are jocks, think like a jock and act like one but the family has a great, lasting memory as does the grandfather and I am sure the granddaughter. European mount is on the wall. db [/QUOTE]
