Yeah, good point about the abundance of food. It's more of a habit-building thing anyway.

I would love to hunt in September, but it's moot to me if it feels like summertime still. I gave up on trophy hunting a while ago. Just doesn't excite me. There were a few nice bucks running around the woods by the gorge, and they needed one to two more years. I think someone took them out..

I'll probably just start up the feeder around late September unless we get a cold spell in earlier.
