Keep plugging away because it only takes a brief moment of being in the right place at the right time to fill that tag.  Have a fun/safe trip!

As far as weather goes, you had one of the worst weeks during rifle season we've had in a long time. What little I've hunted up north, I think it's a hard area to hunt. I'm a lot more familiar with the woods and deer patterns around my house. I only see does for the most part, but atleast I'm seeing deer. If I was offered a trip to go up north though, I'd jump at the chance. Most of the country side is a lot different than around here, and it's always fun to explore new areas.
