Anyone else having a comically bad season?

Don't feel bad, man. I have seen MAYBE 6 deer all season, and haven't gotten a shot at anything. Done probably 10 drives and accomplished nothing, not one deer. Missed a 5 pointer opening day of bow season at 21 yards, which would have been my first deer with a bow. After that, an incredible amount of ZERO. Can't say as I've fallen in a frozen canal, however. . . . smooth.

I've got to update. My comically bad season turned out great. As I was walking back to my car on the last day with only about 5-10 minutes of light left, I bagged a good sized 4 x 4 buck. I'll post pictures later. So, everybody, keep plugging away. A bad season can turn out great.

Finally saw the 8 point i have been chasing since bow started...Blew it. I didnt get a shot but im a first year hunter and the deer was going down another run so once he had his back to me i gave a little grunt and he picked me out like I wasnt even wearing camo...Talk about an all around bad feeling seeing that white flag go up and listening to that big guy wheeze as he ran off. What did i do wrong? Should i not have grunted til he was further away ?

Ya I blame it on the demacrats. That's why I lost a few spots this year. Everyone is down sizing. And most the democrats are against hunting but for higher taxes. Just make sure you use your saftey harness. And if you use a crossbow, change the string every year. I had mine go off and catch my thumb. That gave me a late start and now I don't even want a big ol stinking buck. I already got seven mounted on the wall!
I guess I'll just sit back and let the cars kill'em, there's good money in insurance repairs...
