Well, another deer season is in the books and we put plenty of meat in the freezer. Between me and my oldest son we killed 3 does and an 8 point. It was his first year with hunter education so he could sit on his own. His first sit solo he saw 12 does and did not fire a shot. Waiting on a buck. More patience than I had at that age. Glad he was able to connect later even if it was a doe and not a buck.
My rut hunting skills are not so hot. I had a bad November but scouted some trails that have good potential for next year. Passed on a fair amount of bucks and the cameras are showing good seed stock for next year. I am always bummed when deer season ends. We get almost 3 months of gun season and it's always a bittersweet ending.
I hope you guys had successful and rewarding hunts this year. It seems like no matter how much you think you have your prey figured out there is more to learn.
