Who would like to get the first ten days back (Oct 15-24)and have the bow season close when gun season is out in December?

Early bow season is by far the best in my opinion even with warm temps.

I think the question for South Alabama hunters is: Would you rather hunt the first ten days of February or the first ten days of bow season?

I'll take the way it is now.


ROLL TIDE !!!

Traded the 10 most productive archery days (IMO) for 10 of the least productive. Why not just close the whole season those ten days in December?

I like the fact that they backed it up. For me at least, it gives us that extra week and half to plant all of our food plots. Just cant see planting plots those first three weeks of September. Our plots look better than year than they ever have and I think it is because of the time we planted them.

I think I would rather have the 1st ten days back myself. The 10 days we had in December sucked for us.

I don't hunt in the south zone. But for me, the early season has always been more productive. To me it would make more sense to start October 15 and completely close the 10 days in December. If you're serious about it, you may want to consider bringing the topic up at a CAB meeting next year. It may not get far. Judging by the few replies on this thread alone it looks like most want to leave it as is. Personally I would love for them to open bow season the first Saturday in October every year.

I'd like for bow season to open September 15th around here. Always wanted to kill a buck in full velvet.

I missed the Oct 15 start date. Waiting till Oct 25 just wasn't the same.

I will say I had the whole place to myself 1-10 Dec.

I'm in the south and would rather have the ten days in October an close completely the 10 days in December. That's ten days if acorns being eaten that I can't hunt over.

I want it back...Bow hunting is not the same.... Two weeks of guns going off does not help the ten days in December of bow hunting...Deer are more spooky and nervous and it is simply not the same as hunting the early season... Starting the 15th and closing the first ten is what I'd like to see... You can't get back those ten days of "quiet" woods...Period...

Any of those deer you saw within bow range? Lot easier to hide yourself before all the leaves fall. How many mature bucks did you see on their feet?
