End of the week should be a friggin dynamite time to be in the woods. Mid January is prime time for our place. Throw in 2-3 days of rain and temps dropping rapidly, and Friday afternoon/Saturday should be the golden window to be in the woods. I'm gonna be sure to be out there when the rain subsides, if not slightly before.

I knew I didn't schedule any classes on Friday's for a reason. I'll most likely be hunting BNF. Good luck!

I can't wait to be in the woods and see ZERO deer during prime conditions. I'll look forward to it all week..

You must be having the same type of season as I am.

I am going to kill whatever I see next, without question, unless its a spike.


I don't always hunt the line, but when I do, I make sure I'm close to my neighbor's 8 acre bean field.

I've never gone this late into a season and not have a mature buck encounter. Haven't seen one even from a distance, not even driving in or out in the dark. I've never seen anything like it

I feel your pain. Everyone that hunts around my area is seeing and killing deer. I have literally only seen a fork horn buck with one side snapped off all year, other than that I've seen does with no sign of a buck around.

I don't even get excited about trail cam pics or fresh rubs anymore.

I have been busted by three separate does this year too, just bad wind management. I keep thinking they're coming in from one way, and they come from the other.

Its bad here in northern Marshall and southeastern Madison county too. I've literally seen 5 deer all season and they were all on the same hunt.

Can't complain on quantity or quality I've seen. I have seen WAY less run over if that counts for anything.

Man Matt, I hate that for you. I know you worked hard to manage your herd.

Real slow for me in Marion Cty. Used to seeing a lot more where I hunt.

I thought my property was having a bad year since I hadn't seen a shooter all year. I let a buddy hunt my place while he was house sitting for me and killed 2 bucks in 3 days hunting out of my loc ons. He said "you must move too much"

Damn!

I’ve been questioning myself I can’t deny. I have been thinking about what I’ve changed in my routine since last year.

I just haven’t been in the right place at the right time yet.

Taking 2 afternoons off on the 16th and 19th. Hoping they be moving.

I agree, if the forecast holds true then Sat - Mon ought to be awesome. Sure hope so.


Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do.
