[QUOTE="Charles Duke, post: 3016944, member: 112406"] Hunting camp in S. Ark formed by 5 buds back in the 60's who still hunt together today. We built a very nice camp house in the early 90's with all the comforts of home and included a walk in cooler with the covered lighted skinning rack just outside the door. Now a couple years after that project was completed, we had a pretty good opening week of deer season with everyone but one getting some bragging hunt story. That one last fella got serious and stayed out all day coming back empty. That next morning he come in about 10:30 with the same story, "seen nothing". As we were eating lunch he came busting out of his bunkroom and said "going to town" and was gone. He came back in a while with a couple of sacks full of stuff. There was doe urine, fox pee, drag cloths, scent sprays, camo face masks and a few other goodies. He made him a sandwich, took a shower, geared up and was gone to his stand in the creek bottom with a very determined look. After dark we all had made it back and was helping a youngster clean his first buck. It was well after dark before the mad deteremined hunter came wheeling in. Jumping off he said " you aint gonna believe this, I got all scented up and did all the cover up to get into my stand leaving no human evidence. All I saw was a couple doe and one unknown right at dark. I got down, put another spray of doe urine on my drag, and walked back the my wheeler on the power line when I heard a rustle behind me.
