Passed on a lone doe , even though I said first close one gets it . After all these years I still have trouble sizing up single does , she wasn’t giant nor tiny , I just wasn’t sure . 

man I’m over dressed !

Beautiful morning here in 6A. Just cool enough to keep me a sweaty mess walking up the ridge. 

[Cabin Fever]

All quiet here… nothing yet.

I won’t shoot a lone doe for just that reason. I’ve been fooled too many times and end up killing a small one

I’ve read before a line “doe” this time of year could be a Button buck.  Bigs boys don’t want him around and neither do the does.  I will let them walk in case it is a BB.  And I agree, single deer without headgear can be tough to size up sometimes.  Especially when you forget your glasses.  Lol

Rarely hunt morning, but should have today. Light frost on shop roof, but nothing lower on deck, picnic table, or truck. 

Good luck to those that are out.

Too bad kids can’t shoot bucks in pa youth season…

Heavy chasing going down.  Good 8 and 3 pt moving the girls around probing the bedding spots and grunting up a storm.  Cameras tell me this was buck went past me in greylight. A good one but after another that still haven’t got a pic of yet.

I have the same problem, especially when I travel down to Letchworth. They are a little smaller down there on average.

Not as much of a problem when I'm on the ground.

  I've passed up numerous ones thinking they are small and then the fawn comes out..Dam! Then the next time I shoot the fawn thinking it's bigger..;)

A panoramic view . Beautiful frosty morning.. No deer, but lots of geese and a few ducks flying close overhead.

I always look at the nose. If it looks long you should be good. Short noses equal small deer.

Look at the placement of the eyes in relation to the nose and ears.   If the ryes are in the “center” of the head, it a fawn.  If the eyes are closer to the ears, it’s meat.

Spike close earlier , 2 small doe and 2 fawns in close. This from the ground stuff is fun. Blood definitely gets going.

Nothing moving so far on this little ridge in 6n. This is my backup spot since someone beat me to my first choice. That's what I get working till 6 then hunting public land. Only about 4 shots heard this morning.

Lone doe at 37ish just over property line.wouldve sent it had she crossed 

[Hock3y24]

Little doe came buy, coyote came out, he’s hit. 

[FLXmatt]

All quiet here in the finger lakes.  I heard what sounded like a fisher murder something in the dark.  Nearly evacuated my bowels.

[Fletch]

Ooof just saw a boner buck, crossed 100 yards behind me in the creek bottom. He was coming from the direction of one of my other stands I shoulda been in. I hope I see him again… closer
