Our season starts Oct. 1 here in Oklahoma. I will hunt off and on from that time until the end of Oct. It just depends on if I have one patterned or not. If I don't have a good buck patterned, I will play it safe and try not to bump anything that may be lurking around the area that I don't know about. Come Nov. 1 is when I get serious, I will sit all day and try to catch a cruisin buck that is pissed or in love, one. I won't shoot a buck unless he will go on the wall, that means that it is a possibility of me goingthe seasonempty handed, (other than the occasional slick head or mercy kills) but it is about the experience more than anything. I just love being out there and spending time in the woods. I haven't caught any good ones on camera just yet, so I may have to play it safe early on and try to put some meat in the freezer with a couple does.
