Deer Be There, Deer Be Gone
Help me out if you can fellas. We have a new tract of land that has plenty of deer with at least 10 BIG bucks that i know of and several medium size deer. I saw them two years ago when bow hunting but was not able to harvest one. It seems though that when rifle seasons comes around they disappear completly. I see their signs but they are not out during shooting hours. Is the pressure just getting to them or what. It is private ground that i own yet last year we had problems with poachers coming in at night. This year is different they won't be able to get in, if they do they'll be walking out without a vehicle. Anyways why am i not seeing any deer during firearms season???
