I think the deer anticipated gun season with all the shooting and went on midnight shift...man i hope they start working days soon...I need to break in my new Switchback,that way the Meat will justify to the wife the money i spent this year...Wow i dont even want to think about that,all i can say is it is a Addiction,10 -12 hours in a stand not seeing nothing by the time you get home, your thinking what you could do better,and the next time you will hit the woods again...Im lucky its only a4 month long season, i would probably be single....................

We noticed a great decrease in deer sighting right before youth gun season. I was seeing one shooter buck a day, I shot a 7 pointer I had been hunting and haven't seen a buck sense. It's like they vanished.

I think mature deer know that the heat is gonna be on once they start hearing a lot of shooting.
