According to my log, I've spent right at 60 hours in the stand already this year during bow and blackpowder seasons, and I've only seen 1 deer for about 10 seconds. Between the hurricanes, the heat, the rain, the humidity, other hunters, and everything else that could possibly go wrong, it's been a slow start to the 04 deer season. Last year, I hunted the same land and saw at least one deer every time out.

Sorry for the negativity, just needed to vent. Anyone else encountered a slow start this year?
