Spaniel, any deer in your neck of the woods?
Well, that's relative considering I grew up in mid-Michigan where the past few years I hunted less than a weekend and got 5 deer.....we call them "corn rats".
Right where I live, there are not many deer. VERY open, few woodlots. I'm modifying my acreage and hope to draw some in. I own a former elk farm with 8ft fences encircling, so I cut some areas down to 4ft to keep the coyotes out but let deer in and I hope to have some by next year. Coyotes are terrible here. Where I hunt further south in the state, there are plenty of deer. The guy in a treestand who witnessed my 338yd shot reported that he saw over 80 deer opening morning from his vantage point.
