RE: WHERE THE HE!! ARE ALL THE DEER?!?!?!?!?!?!
I haven't been seeing much either. I've hiked probably 20 miles through the timber, up and down canyons, straight up a mountain, and I even hiked a bunch of open parks and meadows in the evening. And I have yet to see anything bigger than a little fork horn. There have been a lot of hunters in the area, though, so the deer are just getting pressured into places where they're more secluded. That sure makes finding a buck worth shooting a real chore. I think I'll have to wait until the next areas I'm planning on hunting open on the 15th to see better bucks.
