lancaster, ca
Today me and a friend got setup around 4am in spot relaxed an waiting,
530 ish sun is slowing starting to show light I start using my range finder to see how far trees are and get some kind of reference points, around 6am the battery dies and had to go back to the truck, as friend stood up there was a 2 doe behind us at 5yards had no. Clue that we were there they freaked out and ran up the hill.

He got back with battery and it's 630 and deer are moving and road hunters are pushing them around, same 2 doe came back down the hill and walked in front of us down the hill and they were being followed by Mr buck, I clipped on to my bow ranged him at 43 yards broad side of me. It would have been perfect shot and well within my range, Glassed him to make sure he was legal SOB it was a spiked buck big but antlers didn't have a split watched him walk down hill chasing the girls, can't wait to go back again lol.

Yeah, if there ever was a law destined to select for weird head gear, that's the one.

Anyway SCB sounds like you have a good spot.
