This spot still sucks

Had a fun opening day yesterday in NWOH despite not getting one on the ground. The really weird thing was how little shooting we heard around the area and saw almost zero orange
I heard a half dozen shots (nothing close by) all morning yesterday.
Neighbor only heard my 2 shots….
Nothing like the days when it sounded like WW3….
 
Been in since 2:45, bumped a small buck on the way in. He came back in along with 2 doe fawns and a mature doe a half an hour ago. Mature doe never got close enough, and I didn’t want to shoot a fawn. They all wandered off. I should’ve shot a fawn 😂 But hey, it’s early and they may come back through. Or get shot by a gun across the street. We’ll see.

Good call on the fawn, not enough venison there for my liking
 
Dad has seen 1 deer total yesterday and today. Heard very few shots. Haven’t ever seen my cameras this dead for this long. Kinda glad I’m not out there freezing for this. Hopefully it will pick up by this weekend. Deer must have really humped each others brains out this year to still be resting up this much. Last time I sprinkle Viagra in the feeder.
