We use to see a lot more deer when there was a dog season. We would hunt from daylight until dinner. We would then go back and stand hunt the same areas we dog hunted that morning and see a ton of deer. They were moving back in to where they had been jumped earlier that morning. Killed more and bigger bucks then as well. These days they don't have to move and when they do they just wait until after dark. That's a fact! People use to be a lot different as well. There was no jealously among our group. If someone killed a big buck everybody was tickled-to-death as if they had killed it themselves. We all hunted together and had a great time. It was social and a great time every deer season. Now days you hunt by yourself and very seldom see anybody. You have to call around and hope you can get someone to come help you drag one out. Even then you may have to wait a long time for them to get there to help. We use to all get together and clean and process our deer as well, which just added to the social part of the hunt. You would get to talk and cut-up with uncles and cousins. Now days people just take their kills to the processor drop them off, pick them up the next week and complain about how much it cost to have them processed! My how times have changed.
The world and all it's beauty is best seen through the eyes of a hunter.
