So Sat morning I'm in a sweet hunting spot on public lands, already seen one deer; looking great. Wind in face (slight wind), cold, just good conditions.
About 8:30 - Not 11:30, 10:30, or even 9:30, but 8:30 in the morning, more or less still prime time (toward the end, but...), I hear what sounds like men talking loudly several hundred yards away (nah, couldn't be) - sure enough, these 3 geniuses walk right along down this bottom area, right up to me, loudly talking the whole way. When I see them and they see me (lots of orange all around, and I wasn't hidden, but right in their line of sight), maybe 75 yards off, I think "okay, surely they'll back out now" (not that it would have helped at that point as much noise as they were making), but no, they continue walking right up to me, and right past me, and have the nerve to ask me if I'd seen any; then one of them apologizes for walking right up on me (then why'd you do it?); then they walk right on to the area where the first deer came from (the area I had correctly surmised would be the direction they'd come from at that spot and that time). Why are you walking around at a fast pace talking at 8:30 in the dad blamed morning on opening day of deer gun season!? And they weren't going home, because they were walking toward where I was parked, and there were no other cars there within a mile or so. So evidently this was their *method* of hunting. Arrrrgggghhhh!
