Well, I guess I don't know anything about deer hunting. And I guess, according to you, I Suck too.

I'll just get back to eating my bowl of deer chilli.

Someone needs to write a computer program to keep up with GC numbers on a daily basis.......It would be interesting to be able to compare where we are on any given day to years past........This has been the slowest start to a season that I can remember in the last 10 years

Every day 4-6:30 corn slinger 6-8 does. Every 2-3 days a buck come to eat right behind them. The buck comes in again between 3-5am. Sooooo can’t call it hunting it will be I’ll go shoot a doe this afternoon just pick the evening when ya not busy. Corn will be the way to go green fields even pastures look terrible.

I not sure we hav fields before thanksgiving - i plan to re throw when rain - but aint no rain close for a while and it may be a while after that

I got more deer n clarke than i ever seen and a lot of mature and a handful of studs - about 1/2 dozen shooters

More podcasts and YouTube channels about hunting would help us all out.

The first week or two of bow season has been pretty consistent for the last few years……Everyone has some deer coming to a corn pile or feeder for several weeks leading into the season opener and then you get a flurry of arrows being slung at them for the first couple weeks no matter what……resulting in a flurry of tracking calls. This year its dramatically different and its not just me seeing it…..A lot of counties down here haven’t even reached 1% of last year’s buck harvest yet…..meaning that there isnt chit getting shot right now……Maybe it’s just the perfect storm of bad environmental conditions with the full moon we had to start off followed by warm weather…….

CNC, up here, the start of bow season has been unreal. Ppl are killing BIG bucks, lots of them, and seeing as many or more deer than ever. It’s weird how it can be so different in different regions.

“Patterns” have a tendency to start showing themselves very quickly…….so just for chits and giggles I went ahead and put the numbers on a map…..Instead of just comparing the start of this season to last year’s total I used the average of the last four years’ totals……Yes its still really early but the pattern that is emerging is setting up just like I was suspecting it would in the original post of this thread. We shall see where it goes from here………

Been a great start down here. Bigger bucks coming In the shop than I've seen in yrs.
