Velvet Hunt - U in or out?

[Team Yuma]

Weather looks cool for mornings, might give it my first try.

 

[Carlos]

It doesn't appeal to me.

Best of luck to you all who go though.

 

[Hillbilly Hunter]

No interest at all. I wish they would not have it.

 

[UCStandSitter]

Probably not. I'm fat and sweaty most of the time sitting in the living room. No point in climbing into a stand.

 

[backyardtndeer]

Maybe. If nothing else, there have been some coyotes on my cameras during daylight picking up pears that have fallen.

 

[Buzzard Breath]

In. But only hunting evenings Friday and Saturday. Sunday, I'm going for broke and may hunt all day. The summer bucks transition off our place once the beans turn, so blowing them out doesn't hurt a thing.

 

[Trnr]

First time in 20+ years I'll be hunting private land so I'll give it a go. If nothin else, I'm hoping it will help with the tree stand with drawls I seem to go through this time of year lol

 

[rem270]

If I had a spot in TN I would. I'm 20 yards from the TN line but all my property is in KY .

 

[Pilchard]

I had one worthy of putting in the effort in camera but he and his buddies have been MIA for over two weeks. Nothing but does and fawns on camera.

 

[knightrider]

No interest at all. I wish they would not have it.

Why, mrans absolutely nothing to herd numbers or doesnt blow anything out because major shifts are coming in a couple weeks anyway

 

[redblood]

No way. A skinny neck red deer on a summer pattern hold no interest for me. Nor do velvet antlers

 

[hoghunter65]

Not me, August just doesn't feel like deer season, I probably won't archery hunt at all this year, my first hunt will be muzzleloader at South Cherokee in October.

 

[Omega]

Naw, to warm for me, and not real interested in the velvet.

 

[Remington700]

Too hot and too many mosquitoes to lure me out there.

 

[Crappieaddict]

Not me

 

[Joe2Kool]

Absolutely no antlers on my cams. Likely sit it out this time.

 

[peytoncreekhunter]

Nah, too hot.

 

[EastTNHunter]

Not my thang. I hunt mostly public land, and I'd rather drop a doe with my crossbow than a buck. I'll save my buck tags for the rut with ML and gun.

Good luck to those who go

 

[Lost Lake]

Not I.

Velvet antlers don't interest me.

 

[Carlos]

Looks like the majority of hunters aren't interested.
I always thought this was a really strange idea, and didn't understand why the agency thought it would be so popular.
