Default DE Archery Season January

Well guys, we're in the home stretch. After what happened New Years Eve, i'm looking for some redemption. Hoping it will happen this weekend.

I had to get my drivers liscence renewed so I took a half day and got it done. Afterwards, I dumped some corn by the stand. The deer appear to be hitting the area hard even though its been pretty warm. Maybe the good lord will see fit to give me another opportunity. If not, its been a fun season.

Anyhow, from what I've seen on the private land where the pressure hasnt been too bad, the deer have herded up and are traveling in groups of 6 - 10. Havent seen any bucks at all. Mostly does and buttons. On the public land, I havent seen any deer movement during the light hours. If it gets cold, I think this might change. But as long as highs are in the mid to upper 50s, like predicted next week, movement will be after dark.

Since the freezer is still empty, I will be hauling out the 12 gauge for the late gun season. But, i really want another shot with the bow. Now Im planning 4 bow trips and 3 gun trips weather permiting. Hopefully things will work out.

Keep the reports coming. Its been quiet on the DE front. Tired of seeing the PA guys hogging the forum...
