Whew, this is tough!
My friend and I hunted all day yesterday and 1/2 of today (rain set in). We were doing little pushes for each other hoping to get a crack at a deer. The woods are completely dead. Not so much as a squirrel. We even tried another area this morning. Looks like we will be heading somewhere else tomorrow.
Except for the rain today, we can't complain about the weather with the temps in the mid 40s. But it gets really frustrating when you don't even see a tail after miles of ground. A little bit of snow would be nice. Maybe Cayugad could send some down to us!

I got this four dear so far, but only have this photo:
I got this one first. She was coming into my area during bow. she was traveling with a nice large spike. I have her hanging in our club cooler. A the end of the week, she went to the meat processor. Amd ended up looking like this:
Hey Semi, is this what you had in mind???
Or then again, this is just from our first week of ML season this year. This cooler was full, but didn't have a wide angle lense:

My bambi from this past November. I had hunted every day with the muzzleloader but the next to last day I decided I probably wouldn't hunt the following day. So I cleaned the rifle thoroughly and put it away. Next afternoon I decided I would go out and sit for a couple of hours, so I just grabbed my 6mm Rem and headed out. With about 2 minutes of legal gun season left, I decided to take this fellow.
That meant no buck during muzzleloader season and since I don't shoot does here, no muzzleloader season for me. None of that matters except that this is the first deer I've taken with a centerfire for a very long time.

We had a Snowless Hunting Season this year wich is really unusuall for us along with a GREEN Christmas. As I speak it's raing out, but it's suppos-to change to Snow tonight so mabey, just mabey you'll have it for tomorrow.
I cant remember a December so Mild as this one has been, they say Us Northerners wont even get any real Cold Weather untill mabey mid January. I've saved a-lot on the Wood for the woodstove this year but my yard is like a Lake!
Wish you all the Best for tagging a Deer!
