Hey Blue , it was a horrible season ! I got myself a smaller four by four , but mainly a meat buck which is what i wanted .....but there was no deer for my son ...actually only saw a few bucks and always where there was no hunting allowed or private property ......a whole lot of does but not even a single spike or fork horn to be seen ! I was mentoring a friend of my sons as well and it was heart breaking to see the lack of hunt able deer....something is definitely wrong ! I still stand by shutting the whole thing down for a a few years and that means everyone regardless of origin etc . My brother hunted in one area on crown land and he saw over forty does in a day ....not a single buck ?
