I went out every day for the first two weeks in Oct. , then just about every other day and on the weekends right up togunseason.
Then a couple of days during the weeks of gun season and muzzel loader seasonwith my bow , then about seven days during the late archery season.
A total of 35 to 40 days in the woods hunting the same general area of 480 acres seeing alot of does but not that many bucks.

I was in the woods about 40 times. No luck on elk this year, but I got my whitetail buck my 21st time in the stand for him. Since then I have just "hunted" a couple of times for does. I put that in quotesbecause I was basically just getting out of the house and into the woods with noreal intention of killing anything.

Just about every evening and a few mornings. Since me being a late starter in bowhunting and not a lot of timber inthe area that isn't hunted, makes for a long year. Though the two spots I hunt (close to town and a tree line south of town) I do manage to get a deer each year.Probably seen a total of 30-40deer (some being the same ones) passed on a couple that were slam dunks this year. Leaving me with my only doe this year down in Shawnee... Next year may be different, as the family and I really love the meat...

I tagged out way too early or it would have been a heck of a lot more...

I missed 6 days where I wasn't able to get out at all. Otherwise I was out either in the morning or afternoon to hunt. For 17 days straight I was in the woods all day every day. That was nice. God I wish it was September.
