Zones D3, D4 and D5 in central CA. Found one zone that opens end of July out here! Can't wait. The new BTX needs to be fed!
I think I asked last year too. I had a buck on the ground before the teams were picked last year. Just getting excited!
Maybe we should have Fitz or Justin change the thread title to Opening Day Countdown! How many days left?
I have nothing to do to get ready for the reason other than plant food plots in July. But I am far from ready for fall and the season to be here already. Too much fun to be had in summer.
I love hunting, I just can't rush a countdown. My fall is so busy with everything I enjoy a break and summer. (Even if it's hot as ****)
I wish my season opened much later. With as warm as it is out here it's really hard to hunt. The last 3 days it's been between 106 and 109! It's not uncommon for it to be that hot for my archery opener too. We NEVER get to hunt even close to a rut. Animals need water so you sit there but it's rare they move in the daylight for water when it's that hot. The heat is another reason I still rifle hunt too. Nearly impossible to spot and stalk with a bow when you're walking on corn flakes.
