Well, I was seeing deer until this past Saturday. The farm I hunt had about 10 yahoos driving around with 4 wheelers, and they were target shooting their slug guns..musta shot 100 rounds. Sunday was the first time I've ever been out and not seen a single deer. Kinda had a run in with the son of the owner, so I took down my stands and I'm not going back out until a couple weeks after shotgun closes. There was a noticeable difference to where the deer were feeding/bedding after the 2 day youth hunt as well. I think it's crazy to have that during the peak of the rut.
