Good luck to everyone going out. Let us know how it goes. I'll be in 2E Monday and Tuesday of first week then Monday-Wednesday of second week. Taking my Fiancé for her First time so hopefully we can see a buck. She's got a doe tag so at least we should be able to get her an antlerless during the second week, it is hunting though so you never know... . She's ringing a 6" gong at 100 yards with the .270 I set up for her so now we just gotta find the deer. I won't get to do any shooting until she does. Good luck everyone!

I'm going to take my 9 year old grandson out the first day,he killed a doe in 2015 with my x-bow and missed one this year! The bucks are still chasing in my area and I plan on finding the doe's and with a little luck he might have a chance...

I'll be taking my 12 YO grandson out also. I had him out several times as a mentored youth but this year he took the hunter education course and has his junior license. I sure hope we see something, even a doe, just to keep him interested.

How'd you all do? I got a 7-pointer and my 86 year old dad got a real slammer. His biggest buck to date. We also got a 291 pound bear.

Found the doe but no buck Scott! I'm taking the little guy out Saturday and hopefully he can put my tag on one. He's good for about 5hrs or so then he gets bored...

Our group did pretty good. Had 15 hunters. We had four buck the first day, three 8 points, including one real nice 19" inside spread that looked to be a really old buck. Then a junior hunter got a 3 point as well. Tuesday no legal bucks seen.

Will be back out Tuesday and Wednesday next week. The group will be hunting saturday but I gotta work so I'll miss out on the big doe day....

Ask him how he manages to last that long. I could use the advise.
