Twas the Last Day of 6-Day

[Rusty]

Twas the last day of 6-day and all through the woods, not a hunter was stirring, not even one shot.

 

We live smack in the middle of over 6,000 acres of forest, WMA on one side and watershed on the other.  I've been outside all day and have not heard a single shot since first light.

Thats a good thing Rusty. More for you with the bow in winter bow season

So much on the theory that gun hunters kill them all.

So true, our daughter comes home from college tonight and she's hoping that there's a few nice ones left for her.

All the dickbags must have been down in my area. Nothing like sitting in a bow hunting area only and being disturbed by a group of yo buck morons who are going to drive the property to push the deer off the bow only state property onto their private property.

Hunted every day.  Mostly sat morning and evening.  Only participated in drives yesterday and today till around noon.  Saw lots of deer every day, including numerous bucks.  Never picked up the gun on a deer.

Spent 2 hours on provate land with my bow this afternoon and heard a total of 3 shots from surrounding farms. Got a look at a nice 8pt from about 100 yards. Was hoping that he and the camelheads he was with would turn my way, but they hung a left and went directly away from me. The wind was in my favor, so I thought I might get lucky, but he lives to see another day

I know two hunters that were out today

[Rusty]

Wow, those are 2 great bucks.

Had that happen to me last year,,,,,moved out of that spot. Not for me, but to each his own

Everyone I have talked to said it's been a quiet week.  You have to get next to the safety zones and wait, they'll going in or coming out depending on the time of day.

I'm in the wrong area

[Live to Hunt]

Can't be allowed to kill a doe a day and expect good hunting. Doesn't take a genius to figure that out.

[gobblergetter]

It's quiet because you can hunt deer for 5 months worth of weekends and no one has to take off work like they use to.

It's a shame but the excitement of 'Deer Season ', no longer exists...at least not like it once did.
