I haven't seen a deer in 4 hunts

That sucks Eman, hopefully the cooler weather will start to keep the idiots at bay for you. 
 
Yesterday was a rough one for me.  It was ridiculously bright yesterday morning with the full moon and as expected I didn't see anything.  The afternoon brought rain and high winds with it and I only saw one lone doe.  I did see quite a few new rubs and "scratches" so I'm thinking that things are going to be picking up by next weekend.   

I havent been out since the middle of last week. I suspect things to start picking up, especially with this cold front. I'm not positive they work, but have you tried nails yet ed ?

Emans,
Was that you in the stand when they went through?  Did you say anything to them?  Kind of a funny pic...hunting quads...that looks like a trophy!

Ridin tandem, in shorts with no helmets.... Gee you think they'd know the basics of ATV safety.
 That really suxs but you have to ask yourself 1 question..who puts a stand on an ATV trail and doesn't expect to have issues? Unless you own the property all bets are off.

Ok, 1st thing I see wrong here is, your stand is parked on the atv trail. You had similar issues last year If I remeber correctly. Gotta move it. 2nd thing is your trail camera is still up. That camera should be scouting for you in a different spot on the property. As bad arse as the cameras are the deer know they are there. When you know for certain your hunting a certain spot, time to move the cam. 3rd thing is, yer stand has no backdrop. You stick out like a sore thumb in the sky. If yer gonna hunt in that stand, yer best bet is to stand up. Dunno if yer seat folds back or not. The stands I have like that, I try to become 1 with the tree and use it for cover to hide from oncoming deer. Best of luck, I gotta get my shower and haul azz to the woods.

Good points there BH........... My camera is down for now, My one stand has camo around it with a zipper front opening ,the other one is pretty open but I do try to use the tree to block me but it's harder to hunt from, I get busted easier, try to use it more in rifle season ..
 

Uh Oh, I found one more thing that could be helpful. Need to raise that stand another 5 feet. Doesnt look up high enough. I like to go minimum 20-22 ft. I have a buddy, back in his younger days swore if you go 30 you wont ever get busted.
