    Went out behind my house. All I saw were does and yearlings. The bucks around here are nocturnal. I plan to get out a couple of more times with the crossbow. Too darn cold for the regular bow.

    I was out all day Friday and Saturday. Only saw 1, thanks to the snow. He came out at 5:37 Friday night at about 225 yards. I sent out a Hail Mary, but came up empty. Had it not been for the snow I would have never seen him. I could have went back to the club house mad at myself for not trying, but instead I went back mad because I threw a haymaker and missed..

    are you still hunting down on the eastern shore ? have you tried any public land over there ? I've been doing some research and thinking about hitting up some public land over there next year.

    not knockin your lease but if i was paying and not seeing anything i would look for another lease.

    It wasn't just our properties that didnt see deer, it was everybody down there. If I heard 8 shots in 2 days that was a lot. We have plenty of deer on our properties. We killed over 20 on one in Salisbury back during the first rifle season. Early bow I saw so many deer that if I would have shot at all of them I would have needed 50 arrows. We couldnt hunt half of our properties with guns this weekend because they are flooded with sikas.

    If you go hunting everytime and see deer, especially this late in the season, I think Id say they were coming out of a cage.

    Judging from the rides back to the club house at night, the deer were moving late...
