Crappy weather for the last week of the season. We got 12 inches of snow, crusty and deeper in the woods. I decided it wasn't for me, since I hadn't seen a buck (no any-deer permit) all season and, at my age, couldn't drag a deer a half-mile through the snow.
Two grandkids got deer and so did my son, all using rifles I either own or used to own, plus ammo I handloaded. I taught them all how to shoot. They also used my blinds. Comforting.
We have part of three deer from other family members in our freezer, should we want some.
I hope to get out and shoot a few coyotes, but the regular firearm season is over a half-hour after sunset today.
I saw 9 deer and a couple may have been bucks, but I couldn't see antlers, so didn't shoot. There's always next year.
Otherwise, I had a great time getting out in the woods and fields.
