Me and a couple friends sat all day Yesterday and didn't see a thing. At 5 when we were driving out we saw 2 young does running across the street.  Has anyone had any luck there this year?

I hunt five different property's that are in different areas !! In the past two years I have noticed and significant decline in the deer population on two of the property's and it's not from over hunting ...

Increase in the coyotes...

Did a little early bow hunting and turkey hunting there.  Did not see much fresh sign then.  Haven't been in there for gun season yet this year.

 

two or three years ago I did see deer there - out of range or no good shot to take

 

Sometimes they hangout on the golf courses near my town, but haven't really seen them there lately either.

 

I have seen 20 or so of them a couple miles away on private land south of Stewart and in Washingtonville across from the firehouse.

 

Wife see deer all the time at a friend's house that the whole cul-de-sac likes to watch - they found a safe zone there.  Those deer were so close to the windows my wife was counting their chin whiskers.

When I was hunting pheasant I saw a nice big body 8 pointer about 20 yards and tons of tracks so they are definitely there
