I'm having a different cause, but similar results. Too much STANDING corn! A lot of corn was planted late this year which means a lot is still standing. A good friend and farmer on the farm I hunt has been cutting fields 2-3 miles from my section. He has been kicking up deer left and right and watching bucks running does like crazy in the cut fields. 3 of the 4 large fields by me are still standing.[:@] They can't say for sure if they'll be cut before gun season starts.[&o] I have seen two shooters but both were in the first week of the season. A lot of yearlings though. It's getting to the point that I'm annoyed to see a yearling buck instead of a doe.
