It's getting tough out there.
« on: November 25, 2013, 02:19:00 PM »
My deer sightings amount to doodle and squat for the last several outings.  Leaves are just about down and you might as well carry a pair of cymbals when you're trying to walk.  

Take a drive around 9 or 10 pm and lots of deer browsing by the roadsides but nothing seems to be moving during daylight.

I look at pictures to remember what deer look like . I have forgotten what venison tastes like .  :confused:

Misery loves company?

I have had very few sightings. All my trail cam pics are night time.

There will be a lot less deer sightings in PA once the blasting season starts next Monday.

The rain we are getting will quiet the woods down now, we are about have leafed out, seeing small bucks and does still. Waiting on the man but soon does will be in trouble.

Too much CORN! Not much use sitting until it's out. I saw one decent buck just at dark the other evening, otherwise zip!

Just had a big boy come cruising through the backyard at 11:30am.  First buck I've seen in the yard lately.
