Default DE Shotgun Deer - Nov

Decided to bag the bow hunt today being so warm. I did drive down and check the stands and poke around for sign. Stands were cool but there was very little sign. Nothing has been touching the corn and there are no tracks, scrapes, rubs,,, nothing. Just have to hope that when the shooting starts deer will move across the farm boundries and give us a shot. Its been like this in the past and we've done well. There's been times there was tons of sign and we got skunked. We'll see.

It'll be weird hunting the November season in my Sept gear! Suppose to be almost 70. I was in a t-shirt and jeans today walking around sweating. That wont help the cause either. But, anythng can happen opening day!

Post results here. Pumpkin Army,,,,,,,, MARCH!!!

Im back early. No Deer. Didnt hear a shot from anywhere close by. No shooting after 730am. No one went out at farms around us and the deer werent moving. Way too warm out. Was swatting skeeters at dawn. Decided to come home and work on leaves and put in a FULL day tomorrow. More people should be out moving the deer around, I hope so anyhow.

How'd you make out Ron?

I made it out this morning. I had a buck come by 45m prior to legal shooting time. Made quite a rucus, I could hear him comming from 100yds away. Decided to stop 5yrds from my stand for a while, was fun watching him as it was pretty light out w/ the moon. Never saw a deer once legal hit. Did hear lot's of shooting though.

On the farm across from Allee House, no shots fired , 1 guy saw a buck , small, but couldnt get a shot. My buddy got a 7 pt down at his dads farm outiside of Milton, cant make it this evening , be back out in the a.m. across from the Allee. I guess Bombay wasnt opened today, no cars and the gate was closed, I like it when they are open, they run themn over to me....

I didnt go today either , I worked at the farm (office work) and the guys went out about 3-30 but I left my boots home and it was wet and all I had on was street shoes, I put them in the truck as soon as I got home for tomorrow....
