What was up with bow season?

[Skully]

We say 0 deer during bow season and 2 bucks and 5 doe were seen during juvy. Went from seeing no tracks to tracks everywhere. I guess the deer waited until the crops were out to come around. I personally have seen nothing yet but hopefully that will change this saturday morning. Good luck everybody, safety first!

I hear ya..Bow season was horrible this year.. I saw a total of 4 deer from the stand all bow season and I bet I have between 40-50 hunts in..

Last year I had 5 acres in corn and deer out the waaazoo..this year I have 7 acres of corn and NO deer.. I'm hoping they are all staying in the woods gorging themselves on the acorns and will show when they are all gobbled up.. Its looking grim..

I saw deer but only had a chance at one and hit it in the shoulder. I lost that deer.

I have a spot I hunt bow only so archery never ends until deer season closes all together.

Acorns aplenty are the culprit for those who didnt change their tactics to hunt them!

Between a massive mast crop and average 75+ degrees i never even gave archery a second thought this year.

Personally, I thought it was one of the best in several years. Guess it just depended on where you were.

I completely agree with this statement

Best season i've had here at home in years. I've seen deer on every sit. Also the best mast year i've seen in many, many years.
Here in East Tn. where the deer density is a lot lower than the rest of the state and where we have very little in the way of agriculture a good mast year can bring the deer out into the hardwoods. Ya just have to sit in the right spot for the conditions that you have.
