I have observed 10 deer in 20 sits , not great , I had a much better year last year , took 2 8’s a 7 and a couple of does . This year will Probably not go as well as our best hunting is about over but i’m Thankful for what I’ve got . Best advice I have is try something different if what your doing is not working , don’t call much or none and keep sprays and scents to a minimum, always have the wind in your face.
If your gonna be stupid you gotta be tuff

Usually the difference in a good deer hunter and a bad deer hunter, is good land or bad land. All the guys I know who kill lots of deer, hunt on land where they SEE lots of deer.
But then again experience matters, I hunt on land where I see 20, even 30 deer some days. I've seen probably a dozen good bucks this year. But we have some guys who hunt out there who almost never see deer. Some of them I know, and I've seen their trucks parked in places before that I wouldn't hunt.
I was in a club near Wadley, AL one year (maybe 15 years ago now). It was only about 1200 acres, most of it was hardwoods, and lots of it was just "trash" hardwoods, not oaks. Pretty woods, but it didn't hold deer. When they handed me a map they told me about a "small 80 acre corner that's not on this map, but ain't nobody fools with that land because they cut the timber off a few years ago and ruined it." I tried my best to keep a poker face!!!!! I believe I killed the only racked bucks off that entire club that year, all of which came from that cutover that those guys thought was "ruined". So the point is experience helps you know what "kind" of habitat deer live in also....you could be hunting places that just aren't very good for deer.
But sometimes it's just luck. I hunted Choccolocco WMA two straight days this past weekend, didn't even hear a deer running. But I heard shots constantly all around me both days.
We were on the edge of Eternia, when the power of Greyskull began to take hold.

I have been thinking of hanging it up for the year. The well has run dry. Shot one buck and have saw 4-5 others in the 135+ range prior to nov. 20. Now I can't find any. The post rut lull is on in my part of MO. Full moon too. went to hang a stand at noon and ran one off which was rather insulting.
Called my wife last night and said I was thinking of quiting for the year. she told me to suck it up and get some meat. specifically she said go hunting the rest of the week and quit passing on little bucks. Guess I married well. Naw that just gives her more time to spend with her boyfriend 😃

I will admit the club I’m in now isn’t the best in the world. But people see and kill deer there. I hunted both morning and evening Saturday and Monday, and just the evening yesterday. Deer were seen and killed Saturday and Monday. There was only one other guy hunting yesterday and he saw 4. I don’t get to hunt a lot of days due to work but the last deer I saw was November 23 2017. It was a spike that I killed. Only killed 2 deer since January 2009. I use to hunt in a nice club years ago where everybody saw deer on most ever sit but me. I think I am cursed. LOL!!! I try to do everything right as far as scent control and playing the wind. This is my 25th year of hunting and still haven’t killed a racked buck. Don’t know, really think about hanging it up. I have lost so much interest in the last few years. I still love hunting but just gets old going and going and never seeing anything. damn hoss where you hunting
