    Can't speak for him but here we can bow hunt during Youth rifle and rifle seasons. We just have to wear hunter orange.

    You nailed it! I shot this buck the 2nd day of rifle season, except with a bow.

    Went for a swim today....for my trail cam. Had it on a pond edge and after 3" of rain it became the pond middle. You can see it on my stic-n-pic [​IMG]
    Also freshened a scrape by one of my stands and put a camera on my plot. [​IMG][​IMG]

    8 does, I think the bucks are still in their bachelor groups and a little bit higher. We were pretty low.

    Northeastern. Those were taken at the base of the Ruby Mountains. My season starts Nov 10, but I won't be out until the 12th or 13th at the earliest.

    Cool, it looks like there are quite a few trees in that area for mule deer.

    Yeah. Some of those areas are nice and thick. I ended up losing the only buck I saw last year in the trees.

    I haven't. The Dept of Wildlife said "no shed hunting before tax day" and I'm usually busy around the time opens up with t-ball and my youth group. I do keep my eyes peeled when I'm scouting though.
