D14 report

[Amir.fabrizzio]

This is my first yea

archery hunting and I pulled D14 as my second choice. I got there a day before season to set up camp and do some scouting. First day I saw 4 does. 2 when I was hiking up they were bedded and the other 2 I saw 20 minutes before it was pitch black. Second day (first day of the season) only saw one doe in the morning and today I saw 6 does and 2 fawns. No bucks sadly. I did see a lot of green acorns so maybe when they ripen up there will be more bucks where those are. When I was coming down the 38 they turned me around because of the new fire

Fab,

Very cool (no pun indented) hunt...I'd be hanging with that spot for sure.

You are in the right spot, bucks will not be in the open but in the trees. Try still hunting through big timber. Go extra slow.

PS I have taken a buck almost exactly where you took that photo but directly behind the way you were looking.

Was up in 14 this past weekend. So many campers, hikers, mtn bikers and jeeps. OMG, there were people camping off the side of dirt roads everywhere. That, plus the heat, made it very challenging. Ended up staying just through Sunday morning. Between Saturday and Sunday, I must have seen about a dozen does/fawns. No bucks, but one hunter I met saw a spike.

Hoping they re-open soon, so I can head back up. Otherwise....kayak fishing this coming weekend! If I can't try for venison, might as well try and fill the freezer with sushi. Plus, weather should be really nice in San Diego off the shores.
