Have a heard of deer located... at least a dozen together... has to be a buck in the bunch... I'm going on a recon mission this afternoon. Deer are coming out intoa posted field... bedding in non posted woods.. need to work my way around into non posted territory and take care of business. I have a doe tag for this zone as well.
We'll see what happens... been raining all night and morning... calling for the temp to drop and some snow tonight... they should be up and moving...

Well sorry guys, Just too selective at the beginning and then nother showed for the last week. I guess wrong place at the wrong time. Have one in the freezer from archery but just couldn't help you all out with the contest this year. My most humble apologies.

Well my gun season is over in PA she skunked me again.

Sorry team. I still dohave a few days left during flintlock. Now I am new to that game (flintlock)so I will not count my eggs so to speak. I do have a good spot where I know I will at least see some doe hope a big boy made it through and is hanging with the ladies.

Now if I can find a place to hunt on Long Island I can add the month of January to my season. Weekdays only though.

Good luck to those of you still hunting.

Paul

MA shotgun is over now... nothing.... muzzleloader runs to the 31st... still have high hopes of at least putting a slick head down for some extra points.
Brother in law took little doe yesterday in NY w/ MZ...
