Nothing on the last day.
I have a special draw hunt on January 26th at a local waterfowl preserve. Hoping to make some smoke that day. I'll update the thread after that hunt!

The necks in my area would have shot him. They don't care about tags and rules.
I've hunted late ML a few times in deep snow. Shot a big doe once that slid about 150yds down a ridge after I shot her. Looked like a seal on national geographic - sliding down like she planned it
