I bumped something coming in this morning -multiple somethings. It's been quiet ever since.

Just had an 8 and a 9 pushing each other around. Where are the doe already?

Good luck - you should consider posting in the "live hunt" section and provide periodic updates.

 

My lab had me up at 4am and I looked at that full moon and said "nope - not gonna waste my time today".   I have decided to limit my early season hunting in my prime spots until I get evidence there is a shooter buck in the area or pre-rut activity gets into high gear.   I have 3 primary areas that I hunt. Z5 Around the house - used to be loaded with doe and bucks with several shooters but now just has a fair amount of young bucks and very  few doe. Several cams running and nothing mature.  Z5 two miles from house gets worse every year - on an observation hunt last night, saw no deer at all, which is what that area has become. It used to be absolutely loaded with deer and everyone I know that hunts that area has given up.  Z2 seven miles from house - tons of deer, both sexes, just no shooters yet but there will be as rut approaches.

No prob, it's under the same Hunting category as Deer Hunting and Bowhunting...top most.  If you're on Tapatalk, it's ordered lexically, so it's down in the L section

Listen, I saw your light and kept moving away.  It was like you were following me.    And now you are sitting in the tree 20 feet from me
