What a crappy season. Been out over a dozen times since opening and the only think I have seen is the same yearling twice. Have been finding rubs but other than that my season has been dry.
I'm having the same results. Keep your head up, things are going to start picking up. Maybe you need to reevaluate where you are sitting?
I've been pretty mobile this year. Im thinking this area is getting over pressured by other hunters. I hunt public land and this year there has been an abundance of others out there hunting.
Same for me I've been out around that same amount of time and I haven't seen nothing yet... hopefully my luck will change
Im a public dude too. Last year i went out 10 times before i saw anything, this year i been out out 4 and no back straps yet. Try a weekday hunt maybe less people walking around. Get in early and let people push deer to you. Keep at it.......quiting is not an option
seems like its turning out to be a tough season for everyone i have only seen a few deer while ive been out hunting never in range but i saw a monster buck chasin a doe when i was on my way home the other day so rut is right around the corner i hope
