Maybe heard 30-35 shots at our park hunt. Slowest ever. Three of us here, so far only the one deer seen. Same here at Shades. Same at Charlestown.

Hunting McCormicks creek. Saw one early, but no shot. Not sure how anyone else is doing on reduction hunts, but they didn't let anyone in until 640. Never been to a hunt that waited that late.

I called it a morning. Nothing seen. Checked a trail cam and spooked at least one walking in unfortunately.

Wow, up at 3:30 am again. This is only my 4th day of deer hunting all season, but, it feels as though it`s been going on for a month! I used to get up and go all day from October 1, through early January every weekend with all of gun season off, and think nothing of it. Whew. Good luck everyone hunting today, stay warm and be safe. Sounds like me. I think this thing called old age has taken a toll on us. Use to be in the stand an hr befor legal light hu t till dark and roaring to do it all again next day. I have not made a morning hunt yet this year. It takes about an hr after I get up in the morning to get all the body parts working and flexing properly and clear the dust and cob webs out to think streight. I am still recovering from the deer tracking dog adventure but would not have it any other way. Onebentarrow

Light switch turn on at 9 am. Deer were up and moving. Passed on a big 9 pt but the .308 took out a doe. Fantastic morning to be in the woods. Stars were incredible this morning. Sat on ground like I normally do today. Lots of trees down from yesterday.

Live from the back porch! I just watched a nice buck bird dogging aroubd my ground blind behind my house. No does with him but, his nose was to the ground and he was zig zaggin looking for love. Or to fulfill his lust rather.

Sat this morning for only a couple hours then had to winterize the camper and take the dog to the vet. Saw the biggest buck yet around 745am never seen on cams. He was creeping really slow through the thickets and disappeared. Antlers way out passed his ears I was shaking so bad. I thought it was time reevaluate my setup and built a natural ground blind I’ll use next time the weather is really calm again

SO, SO close.... Had my number #1 Hitlister at 60 yards (150 class heavy 10 point) tending a doe and coming up ridge I was on when for some unknown reason circled her and walked back down ridge. 4 other doe's were in front of them and they all came up ridge and fed on acorns just a few yards away from me.... (Wind was in my face SO perfect and didnt smell me.) Guess he wanted some alone time with his little lady??? LOL. I Could do nothing but watch in binoc's as they casually walked out of site. GGGRRR...... it's kinda been that kinda year for me.. All in all saw 6 different bucks and 13 antlerless so deer were on the move... If wind is right be back in same set in morning for these season low 20'S...
