I was hunting a ground blind one cold, foggy morning in the hill country. The fog was so thick that you couldn't see the feeder less than 100 yards away. Now, this blind sat right on the ground and didn't have door. You had to crawl in one of the large open windows and sit on the floor.
I couldn't see anything so I decided to catch some zzz's. Some time into my nap I had the feeling that I was being watched. I opened my eyes and sure enough there was something in the window of the blind. It startled me and I jumped. When I jumped it became startled....and blew snot all over me. It was a dang cow, which after blowing snot all over me, caused a stampede as it ran away.
Scared and covered in snot I decided to call it and went back to camp. No more sleeping in the deer blind for me. That would have been funny to watch!

I sleep so much in my blind, I cut a 12"x6" rectangle out of the front wall, where it meets the floor and screwed plexi-glass to cover it. Now when I'm on the floor, all warm in my sleeping bag, I just have to roll over to check the feeder! College degree baby! My dad is so proud.....

I hunt. Period.
No playing on the phone, reading books, watching tv or taking a nap.
If I want to do any of that, I stay home and leave the woods undisturbed.
Because hunting whitetail deer requires such intense focus...

Define "do it right".
Because most of the people I know that deer hunt find ways to pass time in the blind, and they are very successful in harvesting nice deer.
What would you say they were doing wrong?

I eat and fish mostly. I duck hunt so i "dock shoot" out of my blind so I don't have to cast.

I guess since they are my woods, it is my business if I disturb them or not, eh?

My blind is always full of ladybugs, those black fuzzy spiders, and red wasps during the early part of the season. I like to spear them with my pocket knife. Hours of quality entertainment.

It seems like I spend over half my time hunting, crouched in the bushes behind my stand.
guns kill people, like spoons made Rosie O'donnel fat.
