6 days hunting.  8 does and 1 buck seen. 1 shot and 1 doe tagged.  I've seen deer from my stand 4 out of 6 times.

I counted 37 deer this morning, none of which came close enough for a shot. I probably average 10-15 deer each day, but have only seen three bucks, and they were babies. Waiting for the rut to start!  :pray:

I can honestly say I have seen several hundred wht-tails under 100yrds and have passed on at least 2o makeable shots. I've taken 5 does, a whitetail buck and an antelope buck (3 of which were taken with the St Judes bow Miss Hope)and that was in Sept.

My 12yr old son shot his 1st wht-tail buck and doe also in sept.

Hunted 3 mid-day to dark hunts, 4 bucks (1 nice one) 14 does within 0-40 yards. Arrowed one doe and a coyote so far no shots on the heavy horns yet. Are we counting the 50 -60 deer that are out in the fields when I wander out of the woods or deer seen on stand?

Since the start of my 2008 Bow season on September 13, 2008. I have seen a total of 18 deer. 1 - 8 pointer & 1 - spike

Very slow this Year. I hunt a 13 acre plot behind my house, Since I still don't have a car I can't get to the other spots I wanted to hunt this Year. Still great time in the Woods... And I'm good till December 31, 2009 for now.

Holy crap - I dunno.  Lots.  Today I saw just the one buck that I should have killed (was hoping he'd stop a bit and loiter but he had other plans).

Yesterday I saw 5 that were in play (drew on a doe but passed on her because there were just too many blackberry bushes between us) and another 5 or 6 that I saw at a distance.

Counting today, we've been out 12 times since deer season opened and we are averaging seeing between 3 and 5 deer each time.

I saw 45 deer last night while on stand. Of those 45 there were 13 different bucks not counting the one that ran into the side of my truck coming in last night so that makes 14 bucks.  Oh, I also saw 6 turkeys and a bobcat.
