My region and circle of huntin' friends had far fewer sightings than in previous seasons with a normal corn harvest. Many of our better hunting areas still had standing corn well into December. In fact, my own property had a few hundred acres of standing corn bordering it on 3 sides until Christmas! Although it made for some frustrating bowhunting, it also kept the gun kill totals the lowest they have been in a DECADE!!! This is GREAT news for next years buck crop!!! LOL !

I checked one of my trail cams today and can honestly say, I've NEVER collected so many buck photos of all age classes this late in the season. Next season is lookin' great already! LOL!
