That time of year
Well including this morning i have hunting the past 8 days except sunday and not seen a deer. So I figured this is the dreaded time of the year this occurs.After dogs and people have been in the woods a couple months im thinking its pointless for me to try to go out and still hunt. HoweverI wont quit. Been off for a week dont go back to work till the 1-02-06 and gonna hunt hard. What about yall is it getting slow for you?
Happy holidays

Last time I hunted was last Wed. and I put a good sized doe in the freezer. I'm headed out again tomorrow.
What you are saying is correct, but the deer are still going to move, just not as much.

My bro shot one no more than 150 yds. from where i took my doe last wed. this a.m. He called my at 0730 really stoked, so i knew he took one before he told me! Don't worry, they're still there

Yeah went in there yesterday morning about 6. jumped all kind of deer on my way in (not that i was really loud they were just between me and my stand). Anyway i had my 16 yro bro in law with me and about 115 he killed a 6 pointer just moving through the open woods in the middle of the day.

RE: That time of year
Tagged # 8 yest. evening. 2 doe came in feeding on sparse browse and I took the bigger one, although they both were good sized. Did some drives at the farm on Sat. and my bro shot 2 that were holed up in a field we let grow just for that purpose. We saw between 10 - 12 deer, which we probably wouldn't have seen if we weren't driving...
