Is the current drought situation going to have really negative effects on deer this coming season? The last really dry spell we had (couple of years ago) I had my best season as far as taking deer, but sightings for me have decreased since then.

Depending on where you hunt, they may move more searching or going to water.

This is not a drought, this is a dry spell. Huge difference between the two.

And looks like a good rain is coming for many of us within the next 24 hours, too!

Yep looks like an 80% chance tomorrow, but they lowered the chance for next week. Maybe we will get lucky and get couple decent rain falls in over the next 7-10 days.
