[QUOTE="Swampster, post: 5264979, member: 589"] I totally get what you haven said about seeing deer versus the deer being there. My favorite box stand overlooks open field, large stands of oak with little undergrowth, semi-open swampy areas with small bunched up cover, and thick, nasty tangled areas, depending on which way you are facing. I usually focus on the direction(s) opposite of the wind, but for sure cannot cover 360 degrees. Sometimes deer come crashing and splashing through like a bulldozer, while at others they slip though so quietly it is as if they are walking on the air. Many times one will just "appear" in my sight making me wonder how I did not see it coming. I have seen a young buck bedded down only thirty or forty yards from my stand over an hour after daylight, with no idea of how he got there or how long he has been there. My point is that no matter how many deer I see, I know that there are a lot more around me that I don't see. Sometimes it is as if I can actually feel them but never get a glimpse. [/QUOTE]
