Our group so far is 0-3. With 2 not known yet. My son got one last year so he won't get one. Our group hunts in  2 different zones 169 and 197.

I also hunt 183, hunters choice this year, kinda surprised! I do believe the deer herd has recovered nicely but maybe one more year of limited permits would have been better. For me in 183, I am only interested in a buck so the does and fawns are safe.

Managed zone for me this year (and last), but unless I see more deer this year than last, I will still probably hold out for a buck. Of course, I can say that now since it's only October and I'm warm sitting behind a desk and not cold and sitting in a stand.

Hunters choice for us this year!

For the first time in years I didn't have to apply to not get selected for 1 of the 100 doe permits in my previous area.

Hunters choice for me--Try for a buck the first 4 days and after that, hopefully a nice lone doe or buck. A doe with fawns I'm going to let them go.

 

Good Luck to all and have fun.. Shoot what you wish as long as it's legal.

With the harvest so far behind and all the rain it will be a very light harvest again for the third straight year. There will be some massive deer roaming the fields this year for anyone lucky enough to catch one off guard.
