Default RE: Is anyone else having a horrible season?

Harvest is way down this year (~30% on deer and elk). The state is blaming a late cold spring that may have killed some fawns, but I think it's the weather and recession. Most people I talked to this year haven't been out at all and are saying there's no point because wolves have eaten everything anyway. I didn't know that the wolves have eaten everything so went out anyway.

Got 4 deer, 2 antelope, and an elk. At least in my area the main reasons people didn't get anything (even a deer) seem to be: 1) they didn't get out of their house 2) when they did they didn't get out of their truck 3) when they were in their truck they didn't start driving around until after sunup and came back for a late lunch. Honestly, all the people I know fell into this trap and very few got anything at all.
