well, here in kentucky(louisville)rifle season opened this morning.my boyfriend and i have recently started hunting an 80 acre farm in spencer county. we got there 'bout 6am andit was just misting rain. temps were starting to drop rather rapidly. wewere sitting in our blind overlooking ahuge hayfield.approximately 30 minutes after getting in our blind, we begin to see deer.i won't go on and on because i could be up all night writing. bottom line is we saw 18 deer!EIGHTEEN! on one single hunt! i have never seen that many deer over the course of an entire hunting season, muchless all in one day!this is even after having to run out two other hunters who were trespassing! how many deer did yousee today?

29...12 bucks, 17 does. One of those bucks was a giant. I only got a brief glimpse of him though...he was chasing a doe down the side of a slough way behind me. Saw 3 other mature, 4 1/2+ y/obucks that would have easily made P&Y, but none were near the size of him...or close enough for a shot. Had a really nice 10 point come within 5 yards, but let him go because I estimatedhe was only 2 1/2. I got up and out late this morning because I didn't have the motivation. That won't be a problem tomorrow morning!

One on One, are you seeing a lot of very small spotted fawns lately. Seems every doe I see has a couple of the little fellers with her. I saw about 12 in the last week.
