We have taken 2 4 points, 3 doe and 2 yearlings. This is 6 guys hunting HARD like its spoused to be!!!. If it were easy everyone would be doing it. Today i dropped a 130lb doe (field dressed) while leaving the woods at around 3:45pm.
pic of doe my son shot late afternoon!!
Great. Good for you.
But ..... I absolutely hate it when some self righteous guy tells me that he's hunting like he is "spoused to be!!!" (sic).
I busted my butt for 24 days in bow season and saw 2 spikes and a little six. I got lucky on the second day of gun and got a 10 pt that rough scored 127.
That is how its supposed to be. But it doesn't change the fact that the herd is down....way down. My buddy cuts deer. They did 180 deer in 2002, 150 in 2003. They did 80 last year and have done 31 this year.
Explain it to me. Did all of these hunters suddenly forget to hunt like they were "spoused to be!!!" (sic).
Bro don't get me wrong here i am in no way picking on you nor am i challenging your hunting skills. I understand your flustration.I am just saying that maybe another spot will produce better results. I know i have had to change up at time during the season and move to better digs and try to find them and i usally do find them. Today at 4:10pm my son shot a nice doe he was coming back to the house because he had to do the 2 and boom there she was... no offence intended my friend.
