Congrats! Good shooting!

I'll get some pics up for those of you that want to see the setup.

Congratulations!  I also would like to see your setup.  I use popups for turkeys, but have never tried one for deer.

Way to go fnshtr! I'm going to try a pop up blind this year as well. How long in advance do you feel the blind must be set up and unused before the deer become accustomed to it being there?
I'm thinking that this year is going to be especially tough because the mast crop is so good where I hunt. Most of the white oaks are dripping acorns and it is really hard to pattern the deer. They don't really have to look hard to find their favorite food right now so they don't seem to be moving a lot. Any advise or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Congrats on a nice doe,  good shooting
         

Ga.boy: I was squirrel hunting with the bow before deer season came in and as I slipped around I noticed deer hitting a particular stand of white oaks. As you say... they were dropping everywhere but the deer seemed to prefer these two or three oaks that were together.

I set my blind up where two trails led to those oaks. I set it up about 4 days in advance of using it and only went to it when the evening thermals started down hill. I did very little brushing in of the blind... just let them get used to it.

When I get a chance I'll get some pics and start a new thread on how I set it up.

Good luck all!

Congratulations!

way to go !!!!!
