Hunted tonight (Sat) didnt see a deer! First time this season I didnt see at least one ! I only heard one shot at 4:30 P and that was it . I did notice that there werent many hunters in local camps. Lower Eastern Shore.

Went in the AM and did not see a deer, squirrel, goose or anything except birds. Family commitments shot the PM hunt but saw deer moving at dusk while driving home.

My dad, a buddy of mine and I all saw nothing this morning. THe woods were relatively still minus the squirrels and geese overhead. Seemed like the duck hunters were having a good morning though.

DaveH saw 5 or 6 in the am, me nothing all day except for the 5 or 6 Dave sawwhen we were trying tofind a tree to set up in from a distance and they bolted out of the coverout the back doorand hi-tailed it across the field:(. Neither one of us saw anything in the evening. Maybe I should add we were bowhunting.

I saw five does in the morning traveling together and well out of range. I saw nothing in the PM and there was very light hunting pressure for opening day.

Saw nothing. And this is getting discouraging as i have not taken a deer yet. Had my youngest son with me saturday and well, he did not want to stay still. I'll be out every day this week while the kids are in school.

Sounds like the best time to get them now is when they are going from bedding back to feed in the evening. Do you guys concur?

I was thinking of doing some small game hunting in the mornings and deer in the afternoon from here on out.

I was out Saturday AM, only heard a couple of shots the whole morning. Didn't see any deer, but a little red fox kept me entertained for part of the morning.

Big change from gun season, nobody in the woods and quiet.

Yeah I think they're all nocturnal.

RE: Muzzleloader Maryland
 

I think I'll head out this afternoon to another piece of property that I haven't hunted since October. See if I can have any luck with the ML. Otherwise, I'll be taking the bow out today.:D
