I cant say i haven't seen them... I've seen ALOT! but never close enough to my stand.. or to much brush or forced to watch 3 doe wander around 20 yrds away from me while im on my way to my tree with my climber on my back a jacket in one hand and the bow in the other..lol yeah.. that got to me i was like this suxs lol..always something preventing me from taking a shot... while my son (who got his firstdeer this year) got 2 so far... so I can say its my best season because I'm happier about his success more than i have ever been with my own..and I've been in the woodsmore than I have ever been...but man i Just don't know why I haven't had any luck of my own. My advice... hang in there! after all .. without a drought.. we can never truly appreciate the rain
