All jokes aside, it is merely a synopsis of my fall deer hunting at Ames Plantation.
2012-2013 Season
Hours hunted: 170
Shooters observed: 6 (125" or 4.5 years old)
Other bucks observed: 63
Does observed: 106
Fawns observed: 89
Unknowns observed: 27
Total deer seen: 291
I killed 4 does this season, but ate tag soup for bucks. All in all, it was a good year in the woods and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
For comparison purposes, this was data from the previous year.
