2 doe's so far but I'm not done yet!

I got 2 bucks, one 7 pointer with the M/L and one 8 pointer with the shotgun. Overall, the guys I hunt with and myself all agree we saw less deer. However, if we have to sacrifice quantity for quality, I'm all for it.

Harvested a nice 17" 9 ptr. w/bow and 2 does w/ML.This year I saw more bucks during bow than ever, and got out less this year.Not bad for state land.

Nice fat 8pt during Bow. Seeing much less deer in my areas (50 and 15). Too many gun hunting days, 2 1/2 months just does'nt give the deer a break.

Heard rumors that is going to change next year. Season will end earlier in January. Might not be what we want, but it's a step in the right direction.

i hope the dates due change. where i hunt in zone 8 it goes all the way till the middle of feburary. every year i see less and less deer but as other people said more bucks. i took a buck with 2 broken main beams a doe and a nice 8 point on the public land
