Thanks They were definitely working on their pecking order. One Jake had about a 6 inch beard, and he would putt and cut while rushing the bigger guys. He's the one who kinda led them towards me.

being during the open gun deer season do you have to wear the 50% blaze orange?
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

I usually set up a few blinds and hop from one to another as the flocks move. It's a waiting game, really.

It's a waiting game, really. it makes sense on public land , as pheasant hunters before deer season we are not required to wear orange but we do I would encourage anyone moving on public land durring any open season put something on that is orange just a hat or a bandana ties around your heck , something when you move if your a bow hunter at the edge of a pheasant field a band of orange above you on the tree won't spook deer but it would be nice to see you.

Technically, yes. An 870 is a smooth bored gun. It's been way too moist here. And flintoocks in blinds are a little nervewracking. I use modern guns when I'm meat hunting. The flinters come out for fun.
