I’m 0/2 this season.

Typically only see 1-2 a year while on stand. That is if I see any at all.

I've seen 0 from the stand this year while bowhunting. Saw one and killed him with a shotgun, but that doesn't count in here.

In my logbook, I classify anythingaround 100" or betteras a nice buck. This year, I saw 11 nice racksfrom the stands. "Mature Buck" is a relative term around here.

One night in Ohio, I saw what looked to be a really good deer (potentialPY buck) cross below me, but it was dark, and I only saw him for maybe .5 seconds. Other than that, I'm comfortable saying that I killed 2 of the 3 nicest racks that I saw from the stand this year.

As for age: All those deer were in the2.5-3.5 yrsage range.
