My son got one during youth hunt. I haven't seen a deer in the woods since muzzleloader. Really getting discouraged. Next Saturday is all I have left!

I haven't seen much...killed nothing. Got a newborn at home so my season has been limited.

After 42 years of very intense deer hunting had had one of my most memorable seasons with no big buck down. I think as I've got older I enjoy the hunt more than the kill. I've seen more bucks this season than I can ever remember and I think the age class structure of the herd is fantastic. I spent the best morning with my grandson when he took his first deer and it has been a blast. Congradulations on all who have taken deer but I'd bet I've had just as much enjoyment as you, already dreaming about next year's fall.

I haven't killed one. Been a few times by myself and trying to learn a new lease. Seen some deer just haven't pulled the trigger. My son (9) killed one during the muzzleloader and since then have been trying to get the big 6 we've seen a few times at my in laws for him. It will be his first buck ever. Seeing all kinds of does and yearlings but not the 6. Saw a 4-pt last night and gave him the green light but he wanted to wait. Went again tonight and saw 9 but no buck. Going back tomorrow afternoon. This weekend I'll be solo at the lease and hopefully something goes down then.

I feel embarrassed but also the need to vent. While I feel that I am a good hunter, I freely admit that I have been very blessed/lucky in my deer hunting. I've got a 140 class 10 pt mounted and have killed a deer pretty much every year since I was 10 in KY where the gun season is only 10-14 days. This is my first year to hunt in TN and I am hunting land owned by family friends thats about 150 acres and I'm just baffled. Buck sign everywhere, counted 47 rubs on a 4 wheeler trip around the property, and I've seen exactly 3 deer all year! Friend killed a nice 10 pt out there and more rubs appeared afterwards, so know there is another.
This week will be my last week.

Don't know if you are riding a fourwheeler in or not, but if you are try walking in. I have better success walking than when taking my wheeler. JMO, your mileage may vary.

No deer here. I've seen several and had tactical misfortunes twice.
