The snow really made the deer yard up in their wintering areas.

4 of us got 5.

I jumped 13 out of a bedding area, I could have easily shot 2 or 3, I got to within 20 yards of them before they busted me.

I did some stalking through standing corn and saw 11 does and 3 bucks in a 2 acre patch of corn.

I think I should host a Hunt next year, there are so many deer it is unreal.

Give me a call if you need help burning tags!

I found a honey hole this past weekend and saw 23 deer from Sat around noon until yesterday night - shot a doe at about 4:25 last night. Talk about last minute.

Just under 70 acres and that was the 12th deer taken off there and the amount of sign is incredible. They said the area was like a war zone reg gun season and everyone they talked to all reported seeing deer, many said it was the most they'd seen in years.

Hard to figure out why and the kicker is that it is not a herd-control unit. I saw 5 deer in 6 days of reg gun and muzzleloader in herd control units and then 23 in a day and a half. I can't figure it out, but am glad I got on some deer finally and got some veni.

Nice to hear of your last minute success Cooter! Apparently there are SOME deer left in Wisconsin.

I dont hunt the doe season and I haven't heard of very many people who have shot deer that do around the Prescott area.

On another note, I saw about 30 deer in Willow River State Park just north of Hudson the other day. Four bucks (one appeared to be a nice 16-18" wide 10 pointer) and several large groups of does and fawns. I thought some state parks do an open season?, but apparently not Willow River.

      My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.

      As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…

      I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...

      Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?

      I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.

      Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
