I have been so far. The season here in Lower Alabama closes in 9 days so there's still time. Two years ago I shot my only deer that year 30 minutes before dark on the last day of the season so I'm still hoping to get at least a doe. My cameras tell me there are deer out there, I just don't see them during the day. Of course, I haven't hunted as much as I would like either. I'm sure, like last year, the weather has something to do with it. It's been a mild winter.

Yep. 3rd straight year. Could have shot does, but I'm really trying to get a deer on the wall


Cant eat the horns there buddy, at my camp we get two does a family member a piece, so between me and my wife we get four, i usually let her smoke down her two, i shoot one, and i hunt for bucks the rest of the season.. When bow season comes around in february if i dont see any bucks and it is almost the last day i stick another doe....As for as bucks go it has been depressing the last few years...I just been having to lay it to the slick heads

7 years ago, I started having kids and have been hunting 2-3 times during this period of my life. I am hoping one of my three will get my love of nature, and we can go at it. So far, my oldest could care less.




My 2 year old little girl loves to get in the stand, and let me tell you it is awesome when deer come out and she gets so excited, granted she waves and says "hey deer" and so on but it still is a good sign for me and my upcoming years even though i wont be the one shooting. She will be getting a rifle for Christmas this year just not sure what i should get her, possibly a .22 hornet

Yeah you're going to have to put the kabosh on that business if you want to stay out of the skunked thread next year.

That's weird. Every time I wave and say hello to the deer I'm hunting they haul arse.

I must give off the creepy vibe or something.

Massive acorn crop and mild winter means more browse. Deer didn't have to travel much.

Yeah, I only saw does during the week, and saw no bucks worth shooting.

I hate doe days.
