Remember those days well. Went several seasons without seeing a single deer when I was old enough to start deer hunting in the late 60's. Shot a pile of squirrels n rabbits though.It goes back further than that and the reason wasn't about not caring what it was. There were limited doe days and mature bucks were scarce as hen's teeth. Back in the day you took what showed up and if that was a forkhorn 4 pointer you killed it and felt good about it because the population was small. I hunted entire seasons without seeing a single deer and if I did it was a doe and it wasn't a doe day.
