So I started keeping a spreadsheet this season on dates I've hunted, start time, end time, stand location, low temp, high temp, wind direction, and total of deer seen split up between bucks and does. Crazy to me how much better October was than September.
September
18 deer seen, 6 bucks, 12 does
11 sits, 9 morning hunts, 2 afternoon hunts. You could tell I wasn't interested in the heat lol
27 hours, 10 mins of time in the stand
October
91 deer seen, 22 bucks, 69 does
13 sits, 7 morning hunts, 6 afternoon hunts
36 hours, 12 mins of time in the stand
Out of all the deer seen I have seen 2 mature bucks. One I passed up on 10-8 that I think is a 5.5 year old deer. And one yesterday that I believe is a 4.5 year old. Both 8 points.
Anywho, there's your useless information for the day. But I enjoy keeping up with this kind of stuff.
