I'd say 9 for me....
Got to hunt a few more days this year than last and killed two good 8 pts and a really good 9 point in early December. The last two weeks of the season for me was the toughest, I think I saw 2 deer in about 3 weeks, full moon and warm temps kind of shut them down where I hunted in AL. I was able to hunt with my wife one time this year and she harvested a "trophy spike" her first buck and she was very happy......I was hoping to hunt more during the rut and did get some mid day hunts in during the full moon, but still didn't see any deer....
