deer hunting

[onthehoof]

Just wondered how many of you deer hunt, and when your season begins. Ours in Michigan begins November 15 for rifle season.

Last year, my husband shot my deer! Worked for a month getting him to come into my blind, rubs all over, on trees and ground scrapes.

Then..opening morning..there I am waiting impatiently for my buck to come in. Eyes peeled like apples, drank no coffee so I wouln't have to go to the bathroom, sittin' still as a rock, and ...kaboom! He shoots my deer. :shock:

It went to his blind instead of mine!

Then he comes a walkin' through the woods tee heeing

lol!

But thats ok, (I guess :roll: !) at least one of us got one!

Well, don't that burn your biscuit!!

Haven't had the time to hunt in the past 2 years, but plenty of deer and turkey,on my place. One of these days, I'll get to retire, and do all that stuff again. :roll:

Season starts down here in mid oct and goes through Jan. 31. Most days are 2 a day but a few are three a day. Nobody ever limits out for the season :lol: . Its a lot tougher hunting than most folks think when they see the long season and bag limits. Some of the state parks in the cities have been allowing bowhunting for the last couple of years also.

I shoot deer (does) when the sausage runs out in the freezer. Haven't even looked at when the season comes in here. Don't really care. Its too hot and dry. Just can't see sitting in a tree swatting mosquitoes waiting for a deer covered in ticks. Gotta cool down some.

It's archery season here right now but I can't imagine why anyone would take a deer in this hot, dry weather. I like mine to hang at least a week and you got to have cold weather for that. Nothing better than a well aged venison loin.

Florida general gun season starts Nov. 11th(?) ! I belong to a club here in Dixie county called California swamp! Deer population is up! I just hope people do not over kill and I hope they eat what they kill and not waste them. We also have a very good fishing lake! et

Archery season opens Oct 1 for most of Texas. But I am in a refueling outage working 12 hour nights.

Gun season generally runs from Nov 1 through January 3 or so depending on when the weekends fall.

The most deer allowed in Texas is something like 5 total for some counties. There are lots of counties allowing only one buck but those counties generally also allow two doe.

I feed a little corn year round but feed heavily in May/June when the fawns are born. We have a couple of doe having multiple fawns. I don't want those does killed but have no control of them when they cross the fence.

The property north of me is leased to "hunters". Opening day of gun season about all you really need to do is sit on my fence while they flush everything over to me for the rest of the year. Weekends sound like the 4th of July then.

I don't shoot full grown doe and I don't shoot big bucks. Generally I take a two year old buck and I like to get button bucks with my antlerless tags. If a 20 plus point white tail walked out, I'd take it. But a 14 point can safely stand in front of me all day long.

When I was a kid we had a doe at Daddy's place that had triplets every year. We never killed her. I guess it impressioned me. We have some resident does on the place now that are safe so long as they stay.

Bow season is in September here, and gun season starts in November, the week of Thanksgiving. ALTHOUGH if you follow me, I can nab you a nice one on any given morning with the car!

I deer hunt for meat, can't fry horns. I live in a county that at one time was the 4th most populated for deer in Texas . I don't now if we still hold that title. I shoot my 2 don't care if they are bucks or does.
