went to several of my favorite areas saturday & sunday. and almost no deer tracks or scat. the deer have really changed pattern this year.. looking for new spots.. found water but no go...
 
Morning action here in D16. Evenings very quiet. Paterns in my remote valley are totally different this year. I blame it on a Mt. Lion and cub I have on camera over the last few months.

I'm not seeing the water or seeps some are talking about. Everything is bone dry.
 
No luck this morning 3 day out this season. Saw 4 does today. My buddies daughter had a G13 he got her with in 80yds she didn’t get it done. I took my 9 year old out kept up like a champ. Most my friends wouldn’t want to go where we went he just put his head down and plowed through. My boys are the best hunting partners in the world. Should have seen his face when he glasses up a doe.

Aren't those swaro's amazing? I use their 15's as well... I continue to be impressed with them. Worth every penny in my book.
 
No luck this weekend. Took a friend for his first time deer hunting. Day 1 late start- posted him high and i went low with a shotgun hoping to flush a buck out for him and maybe quail for me. Nada.
Day 2 went early and stayed together glassing. Fog rolled in so we went bush wacking and kicked up quail 15 yds in front of us. No shotgun had rifle with me. Aaargh!!!

After a weekend of hunting and only spotting one doe, went out for an evening hunt Monday. Saw nothing. No surprise. Was very hard for me to get up this morning from being demoralized. Finally dragged my self out and hit the road after 5am. Still hiking up at 0630 spotted first deer. Over 1000 yards and can't tell if its doe or buck. So I kept hiking up and saw so many does this morning. The does that I first spotted I stayed with for awhile and the rest I would stay with 20-30min to see if there was a buck close by. Wrapped it up at 1030 and head to trailhead.

Excited to hit it again Friday.

Close to the trailhead I see a couple guys flying drones. Talked to them for a bit. Guy asked me it its legal to hunt there. I said its legal for me to hunt there but Im sure its illegal for them to fly there. Those guys got some really cool gadgets. Didn't want to hang around them too long in fear officer green pants will cite me for hunting with a drone.

To all the guys who still has tags to fill....good luck!
 
Keep at it fellas. Best hunting is starting. If have to I will road hunt. If get better I will be out. Rut and dark of the moon. I am sure more deer will be posted.
 
Saw one lone doe on Sunday and that was it. Got cold wet and then hot but enjoyed the hike. Ready to hit again this weekend.
