I guess the hunters where I was at don't like to track wounded deer I heard about 30 maybe 35 shots but it was easy to tell that there weren't that many deer killed. most of the time when you heard a shot it was immediately followed by 1 to as many as 4 more from the same gun lol

I didn't hear as many shots as I usually do. I did hear a few strings of shots ripped off.

I heard maybe a couple dozen. About 4 or 5 that was close. Unfortunately none were fired by Woodmaster or I. My grand total of deer seen was three - 1 fawn, 1 doe and 1 2 1/2 year old eight pointer. We have seen the buck several times. Last I saw them they were headed for the spoil banks - never to be seen again.  Hunted to 10 cst and gave it up as the last deer I saw was at 8 am. Rain moved in shortly after we got down. Rained all day. Where was this rain during the summer? |

Sat for 12 hours....nothing, at least no seer. Only heard maybe a dozen shots, most far off.
Rain came about 11, off and on all day. Not heavy though, I figured they might move. There's always tomorrow.

Not a bad day at all. Got into the stand at about 7am. And had a great doe down by 20 til 8. She had been seen a couple of times before but always out of bow range. This time she was pulling up the rear of 4 other deer, 3 small does, and a spike buck. She cleared about 90# in the cooler. Gonna be a nice chunk in filling the freezer.

The only deer I saw today was about 8pm while driving home.
Heard a few guys that sounded like they were at a firing range. Beyond them, very few shots. The boy killed a tree limb, but got a big handful of white deer hair as his consolation prize. No blood.

I probably heard about 25 or 30. the first of which was at 0644 on my cell. I did have the chance to shoot at 0650, but I couldn't see whether the deer was a buck or doe and I didn't want to use my buck tag on a spike. not enough points for my team lol

I heard around 20 - 25 shots this morning on public ground, not nearly as many hunters out in my area as years prior, dont know if it was the warmer weather or what but I only counted 9 cars in the 4 spots that are usually covered with more than 30 cars last year during the opener !!!! Didnt see any deer and bumped into one lone bowhunter around 9 am walking the horse trails. Better luck tomorrow maybe but Im sure with the cooler weather there willl be more than 9 cars neasr my favorite hunting spots in the morning LOL ! Good Luck to all of you and be safe out there ! ~ INDeerhunter ~

We heard two shots 20 minutes before legal shooting time. One to the northeast of us and the other to the west. After that we heard the usual volleys of shots from the fools to the south. Shortly after a small basket rack 6 ptr passed my stand (headed their way) I heard 7 - 8 shots ripped off in about 30 seconds. It sounded like the same gun. Other than that crew running through their cases of ammo we heard the usual number scattered all around us. About typical for us.
