Man I have been out now 15 time with only one doe sighting. Where the hell are the deer? Sent from my iDen
seems a lot of people have been having the same issue this year. I haven't even seen half the deer I usually do
You need to find a different spot .... I could not hunt that much and only see one deer ... I am probably at 80% of my hunts I am seeing them ..
I don't what it's like around you but all my hunting buddies were reporting SLOOOOW no deer moving. This was as of last Monday. Since Wednesday action has picked up drastically with two bucks down and two does down. Heard of possible third doe down today it was like someone turned on a switch. My only question would be if you're hunting a spot or spots that you normally see deer from in previous years or have had deer moving on camera ?
Are you maybe overhunting the spot? making good entry and exit to avoid spooking deer? is the area heavily pressured? Hunting only when wind is right? Has it been too hot? Do you have trail cam pics ? Has the food source changed from last year to this year? Other hunters in your area experiencing the same thing? Don't really know what to tell you other than trying a different area.
Idk what to say man, all the guys above have covered it all. I do want to say to keep your faith high cuz it will happen soon. Good luck
I think you guys are right. I have put too much pressure. I am going to give it a break for about 8-10 days. Do you think this is enough? I think in my frustration I have been too loud on my exit. I also am hunting in a ladder stand which is noisey. Should I move it?
I can't imagine. I have sat once in the last several years wihtout seeing a deer. You need to move. Focus on food. Best of luck and kudos for being persistent.
