I'm selling all of my gear and moving to Mexico. Screw this deer hunting, I'm gonna be a bullfighter! Ya'll, I have never had a season like this. In the past 19 days, I've sat in a tree 16 times. I have not seen a single deer. The last deer I saw was November 10, in the morning. It is seriously becoming difficut to get up in the morning and climb a tree. Now, I honestly don't expect to be able to kill a deer on each hunt. Or even see one, for that matter. But, in all honesty, in years past I get a legitimate shot opportunity one in about every 5 hunts. That at least keeps me interested. The trail cameras say it all though. Every picture is taken while it's dark. The deer are simply not moving during daylight hours around here. Anyone else having similar issues?
I have seen 2 does in shootable positions in the last 3 weeks. I was at work (no bow around) both times!!! I had a doe at about 60 or so yards yesterday...and couldn't close the distance to get a good shot off. So i feel your pain! However...bullfighting will ACTUALLY hurt a whole lot more!! HAHA
Same here Mobow. I was really getting sick and tired of getting up and going. I have never seen a season like this in my area. Not sure what is going on. I have spoke with several others and they are sayinbg the same thing - Nocturnal pics only. I am thinking it is gonna break loose here pretty quick though. Acorns have just now fallen fairly well so I know where I need to be "now". Good luck to everyone. I know I am gonna need some.:D
