Opening of last years gun season we were 30,356 Gun season comes in a day earliet this year so the early archery will be one day less than last year.. Going to be tough to do daily comparisons with an earlier start date.. Might start another comparison just to encompass the gun season.. The way it looks now it will be a banner gun season. Bucks are up and moving and blue bird days (for the fair weather hunters)..

The true blue hunters still go and are typically (not always) much safer hunters. This year gonna be posted up survaillence at the new property I bought....expecting some to try and trespass as has been rumored by some neighbors of it. Yay me......

A 45 on the hip open carry, shotgun in the hand for squirrel hunting, cell phone with CO # and 911 on speed dial. Lol I will be legally carrying but most likely sitting in my truck parked along the road a 1/4 mile down on a property I gained permission to do so on, just for this survaillance. Wasn't gonna do it if I still had a buck tag, but with that punched and doe down Saturday I'm 100% in land protection mode for Saturday now. Gonna stay off the place after changing camera times tomorrow till Pops either wants on for a buck or after gun season doe hunting most likely.

I actually have grown to not dislike the day or the folks involved in it...because I've long since hating it realized I have simply had to deal with the bottom of the bucket and have since learned the entire bucket isn't bad apples.

I know there are people who don't like it, but I've always looked forward to the firearms opener. Yeah, me too but I'm a deer hunter not a particular method hunter. Something magical about the gun opener. I look forward to it more than the archery opener.. I didn't even go archery hunting until two weeks ago.. Too hot and bucks aren't moving all that well.. Different strokes and all that...

What difference do you guys think HPR will make ?? say i for instance in most years We see 50,000 killed opening day You think it could jump to 75,000 ODay due to HPR being more successful??

I think there will be less wounded deer. A tag is a tag, it just doesn't magically multiply using a hpr versus a shotgun or pistol caliber rifle. One of a hunters top responsibility is to make the best ethical kill shot with the first shot. My dad has this saying...."when in doubt, don't do it".
