Nothing so far not even squirrels
I do most of my hunting within 25 miles of AEDC. The last couple of days there has been movement until 8 and then again about last 45 minutes of hunting light.
That said I am in the AEDC woods today in area 1 and gave zero shots and seen no movement. I am close to the Tullahoma-Manchester HWY so traffic sounds may have drowned out some shots. I gave hunted this area when it is open since 1993 and things are very slow.

I sat two places that had decent sign this morning and evening and no deer seen at all. I wasnt expecting alot being my first time hunting there but did at least expect to see deer. Being from east tn foothills maybe i just dont know how to find flat land deer?

Flat land deer are a lot more unpredictable because they don't have steep terrain to funnel their movement. You will still find funnels but it's generally tougher to pinpoint deer movement on in flat woods
I agree. Especially at places like AEDC with tons of hard woods and thickets.

Spent the day there.
a buck watched me climb a tree early morning (grey light) once I sat in my saddle and started pulling my shotgun up a doe stood up and they both ran off. I guess they were 50-60 yards away.
It was one of those is that a deer or a branch right up to the point the doe stood. Lol.
never seen another deer. I must have walked 15 miles looking for good sign. Didn't see much. A lot of trucks/ hunters this hunt. Heard 5 shots. All day

Was your truck the Ford or Chevy? I saw the trucks parked by the woods on my way to wal mart to get pellets for my pit boss.

I hunted pine edges and found good rubs and a scrape. My first time hunting it. I think one would have to spend some serious time out there to figure it out.

I hunted Friday evening. Saw a ton of deer, killed a nice doe. Should have a killed a buck, saw 3 small bucks, but decided not to shoot one since I didn't want to drag a second deer out.
I love that place, I never scout, when I get drawn, I go hunt and almost always kill a deer if not 2 on the gun hunt there.

AEDC still has a ton of deer. According to check station, bucks are getting a little more size.
Neither one. I was in a gray Titan on Saturday afternoon.
I worked there when i was in college at the commissary. Used to be a few deer that way. Seems the numbers have went down
