Yea I hunt SE Kansas. I have noticed the same thing here. I have only seen 4 does this week. I did bust 1 buck out of some real thick brush about a week ago. I saw him for about 2 seconds before he disappeared into 7 foot tall grass and was gone. Some hunters came in from out of state and managed to take 3 nice bucks which they brought to my shop to be caped out for mounting. Other than that it has been pretty much deerless around these parts. Here are the 3 they got!
Live it up! Doug
