Who's seeing deer? What, what time and what were they doing?

I stuck one on the 16th, feeding on acorns, early afternoon. Saw a doe and a fawn feeding on acorns about 4:00 on the 20th. I hunt for a couple hours minimum most days. Camera traffic has slowed on the feeder and I am getting no daylight pics.

I have been about 5 times since the 15th. Sit anywhere from two to four hours at a time. I have seen the first deer. Haven't seen much sign. Bow season is usually my go to time. All my honey holes that I go to every year have dried up. Oh we'll it's hunting.

In five sits I've only failed to see a deer once and I've killed 2.

Right now I'm seeing about 1 deer for every 8 hours in the stand. Pretty pathetic

3 sits. Saw 6, 3,and 2. Deer in bow range every time, just haven't pulled the trigger yet. Guess I'll start carrying a good camera instead of a weapon.

Hunted 5 times. Only once did I not see a deer. Kilt three so far. Seeing them on acorns and food plots. Mornings have been far better for me. All three kills were in the morning before 8:30.

They seem to be hitting the green fields pretty hard.

This don't count, but I saw one from the top row of visitors bleachers at Randolph last night in Huntsville. He was just in the edge of the lighted area behind the bleachers. I don't know how large he was but you could see rack with no binoculars at 400+ yards.
