Were in Wilcox and Been really slow the entire season. Of course archery was very hot.

We have hunted hard the past couple of weekends and only seeing really young bucks and yearlings. We have seen a few young bucks chasing does but no mature deer of either sex moving.

Lots of scrapes being tended at night with some action on trail cams at night and even mid day.

Anyone else having a very slow season?

Anyone have any thoughts on this weekend's full moon hunt?

Been slow overall for us in Abbeville too. I've had a few small deer find my feeder and come by regularly in the middle of the day. Finally saw a few more this past weekend, so maybe it's starting to turn. Last year was awful, so hopefully the best is yet to come.

We hunt about 4 miles South of Abbeville on the river, seen couple of small
bucks, but it has been slow so far, been here since Thursday. Hopefully the cold weather will get things going.

Anybody else seeing much?

We hunt off of 129 just north of where American Legion rd runs into it. I looked at a piece of Rayonier land this weekend that was unleased so far, bout 2 miles south of American Legion rd, you near there?? We shot a couple does, I missed a monster that I guessed in the mid 160s Friday morning, twice at about 275 yards running a doe.

Slewfoot, are you from Abbeville?? Just wondering if you generally see a definite rut in that area, only our 2nd year here and last year was a little better. A lot of our problems have to due with all these - I AM A POTTY MOUTH -- I AM A POTTY MOUTH -- I AM A POTTY MOUTH -- I AM A POTTY MOUTH - hogs, trying to kill/trap everyone we see. Good luck, I can't get back til weekend before Christmas, got a few Redfish callin my name.
