[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5534666, member: 17"] Great post Henry! Always fun to watch a hunter "learning the ropes" of modern deer hunting. And as for your comment about wanting to "figure out the travel routes in the ravines/creeks/topography," get used to that. You can learn a lot, but just when you think you have the local deer figured out, they will switch their patterns and you have to start over. It's a never-ending process. I've been hunting the same property for 35 years and I'm [B]still[/B] trying to figure out the deer patterns. They keep switching in response to our hunting pressure as well as to changes in the habitat. Unfortunately, my property's season was very poor. Not the worst we've ever had, but close. The local drought wreaked havoc on deer health and behavior. The "big boys" never showed up and the bucks we did have were of very low quality. Older buck sightings the first half of November were abysmal. Personally, I did OK killing one of the better bucks on the property, but he wasn't anything special. [/QUOTE]
