Well, Dave - part of that "Deer hunting to me is no longer about killing deer or filling freezers" is because you don't like to exert the effort to drag 'em out unless it's really going to be worth it!
For me, I got a buck and a doe during rifle season - was going to go out with the wife today so she'd have another chance to fill one of her tags, but the wind is howling with the wind chill just above zero, and she would have been frozen in 15 minutes. Since we drive 2+ hrs. to where we hunt, we didn't think it would be worth it.
Archery season re-opensDec. 1 - Jan. 1 and MZ season is Dec. 14-23. I'm really hoping to be able to score again with the White Ultra Mag.

Good Luck to All
