I did not keep count of the deer I saw, but seldom went a sit without seeing some, usually young bucks and does both, I missed quite a few weekends and didn't hunt as much as last year, but overall am pleased with this season, overall our deer population is up on our lease, some good young bucks that were seen and not killed as far as I know,, should be good ones next season, I'm glad that we didn't take any does this year either, as that should increase the herd next year as well.
We took three good 8pts this year, and a 7pt I might get around to measuring the one I took, but we've never cared about that stuff in my small group, we hunt for the camping, being in the woods, and ultimately try to put meat in the freezer without hurting the population, We have taken very nice bucks in the past, but I honestly don't think anyone of our core group has ever measured one ? lol
I'd rate my season an 8 or 9 also, based on the time I was able to hunt, I plan on continuing to feed till March, and also next summer, I'm going to start using protein feed instead of corn, to try and help their health and stuff,
