“I took one doe and no bucks. I saw one shooter but passed on him early in the hunt. I saw small bucks at every sit. I saw 2-3 better bucks sneaking around the feeders in the brush. Keep things like they are. I don’t know of anything you could have done to improve the hunting this year. It’s just the way it is sometimes. That’s hunting. It’s a fun and enjoyable camp to be in. You and everyone in camp make people feel at home. The deer did not cooperate this year, but everyone gave it their best try to make it work.”
