Mord...my camp is in Braxton county, and between turkey hunting and mushroom hunting this spring, we found 11 dead deer. The hunting pressure is low on our land, so we figured that the vast majority of these died from starvation. Two were nice young-looking bucks.

I found a couple white oaks that are fairly well loaded with acorns, but I heard that overall, the mast is looking poor AGAIN. The deer are really going to be hurting if it' s another winter like last year. You' re right about hickory nuts..They' re everywhere.

I don' t think that humungous ice storm helped the acorns any.
