[QUOTE="Rakkin6, post: 3776159, member: 23863"] Saw 3 spotted fawns yesterday, going out for an afternoon hunt today. But I have to say I had the worst experience ever in 13 years yesterday hunting here on Fort Campbell. The majority of the hunters I run into are decent people and I've other hunters a wide berth. But yesterday i was sitting on the edge of a field and saw two hunters walking on the other side of the field at about 2 in the afternoon. I waved my orange hat so they knew I was in the tree and they acknowledged me. They stopped talked for a minute and and then went on into the woodline. Now I assumed they would push out a good distance. Well I had three fawns enter the fired in front of me then I heard a shot probably about 20 yards in the woodline where they came from. I know that it is public land but to do something like that in my opinion is dirty and dangerous also. I assumed that the other hunters initially had know idea I was in the area and maybe they had been still hunting. But then I get back to my truck that was parked on a gravel parking area and they had parked each of their cars one on each side of my truck so they knew someone was in the area, they saw me and still this happened. And I know legally i could have killed one of the fawns but killing spotted fawns on post is highly discouraged and I like to keep my good name intact in case I need it one day. Sorry for getting on my soapbox but it just bothers me when hunters do other hunters wrong. Oh yeah then when they pulled their quad around to get the deer and get back to the car they asked me if I saw anything good. LOL Again sorry for the rant on here but I hope everyone is doing well.
