It didn't affect my Hunting or sightings much. The ground I hunt is pretty much around a hay field & pasture ground. So movement through and around the 80 acres I have to hunt is pretty consistent from year to year. The Hay field and pasture has been on this property for the last 30 years at least.
I know some of my Buddies that hunted strips around corn fields were complaining, so I am sure a lot of hunters were affected.
