Default DO you see deer all the time

Do you guys see deer every time you hunt, or do you have spells where you see nothing. I did not see a thing today guess it just matters where they end up right?

i have been out 3 times the past two weekends and havent seen a thing in my spot.... they will come, it deepends on pressure which they aretn getting much yet. And the waeather. Here in ky its still warm so they arent moving much. The spot you hunt can be dead right now and a hot spot when it cools off. Just hang in there. And by the way i live in kentucky and we have been in season since the fourth

I do see deer almost every time I go out, but then again I know where they are. Now if I go to the public hunting area 3 miles from my house the answer would be no.... the reason being is it's a little 30 acre spot on a state lake and the deer don't stay there. In 5 seasons I've seen the same buck there twice. Almost bow killed him the first time but I was on the ground hiding behind a stump. He walked up to within 30 yards and busted me when I went to draw. The underbrush was up to his chin. That' s it.
Live it up! Doug

Missouri I dont, my average on stand is .5 (thats not half of a deer, just one every two stands). I hunt public land in MO.

On my family farm in Ohio I see at least 2 per stand. I know the land well which helps.

im hunting a new lease this year.... 178 acres and its an all new farm to me... i picked a good area with a hillsidee full of cedars on one side and a nice stand of hardwoods on the other side of me. my stands on the edge of a creek bottom. I thought this would b very productive but like i said havent seen one yet. Hopefully it will change. The farm i used to hunt id usually see deer. so im missing that!

Nope, not all the time, especially during the earlier part of the season. As the rut gets going, I see something most days and I am usually passing on the shot unless it's wide and old or no horns.
