Helllllooooooooo Fellow Champions!

Can we do it again? I think so. I have to say though that my scouting so far has convinced me that this past winter was very hard on our local deer population. In three trips, I've seen 2 does with fawns, and one fawn without a mama. I did see a 6-8 point on my property a few nights ago, but it's the first one I've seen this whole year.

I've got acorns out the wazoo, something we didn't have last year, I'm looking now for sign to point out good stand placement. Historically I know of two trees (white oaks) that the deer have ALWAYS come to almost daily so there's at least an easy doe for the freezer.

I need more time to scout, but I just haven't had it so far. The best news for me, is that after the baby buck I got last year, for me there's no way to gobut UP!
