Re: D11/A31 archery opener update
woke up this morning at 5am to hear pouring rain...rolled over and went back to sleep....got up around 9am no rain...headed to the mountains...figured i would do a late morning/afternoon hunt...as i was walking up the trail to my spot a deer crosses the path...i hurry to an elevated spot to see if it was a buck....after a few minutes of glassing around and i spotted it...a 3x3..its cruising up a hill so i try to get my scope on him but up and over the ridge goes....bye bye...lesson learned...dont sleep in at all during deer season...if i went there at the earlier time i originally planned,freakin rain..i would of been waiting there when the buck crossed the path....

Welcome to SCH Winchester 300 Magnum . Do you have any pictures of your buck you can post?
These deer up in D11/A31 sure are bunkered down and aren't coming out to play. Saw a decent dorky opening weekend of A31 and didn't give me a shot. Since then I haven't even seen a Deer. Hopefully after rifle season ends and it gets cold these deer will start moving.
Keep at it you guys, that area is producing deer this year. UD i know where you are hunting and trust me they are in there! Dont chase them into the thick stuff. if they wander off let them. Great chance if they are not spooked they will pop back out the same hole in the afternoon or be going the same way the next morning. I have spent years patterning deer up there and they are creatures of habit.
thanx Aeon...got my hopes up for this weekend..next report coming on sunday...!!!! good luck everybody...!!!
Thanks for the report UD. Good luck on your next outing. Lots of people on this site pulling for you.
