That's odd. Any idea why that'd be? Are y'all's hunting areas that pressured? That's about the only reason I would think of!

To be honest its night an day. The area I live an hunt in has a 3 month rifle season. An you are allowed to run them with dogs, that's a big thing here. Our deer almost never get a brake, dogs are trained in the summer months also. Don't get me wrong, a mature buck is hard to kill anywhere. But even on public land in Ohio, deer move totally different than deer in Nc.
Wow, it's tough being a deer in NC! Dogs definitely have a negative impact I'm sure! Here in Ohio over the years, when I was hunting and some asshat neighbor let their dogs run free it really fugged my hunting up! Can't imagine being in that environment!

I couldn't even imagine hunting that way. Are there really that many deer in NC or perhaps very few hunters so they allow them to hunt that way??

According to my phone its 82° Not exactly sure why I'm here but figured I'd give it a try. Got apple trees in front of me and this this creek behind me.
Well fuggers I'm at it again and morning is already off to a bad start.. I heard something rustling around behind me so I slowly turn my head and there goes the alarm! 2 does behind me busting ass outta here [emoji35].. Fingers crossed that something strolls by
Let it roll off your back and get back in kill mode buddy! They prolly heard or saw you going in and came to investigate and look for you......does like to do that you know! Mature bucks like to bust ass over to the next county! Lmao
GOOD LUCK THIS MORNING!!!

Good luck! I've had them run away like their butt was on fire and come back 20 minutes later.

The 4 slick heads walked right up too the truck and were looking at me probably thinking WTF are you doing here lol.... Couldn't move too get an up close and personal shot until they walked away lol.. Actually the third time they've done it in the last week and a half lol.... They're used too seeing my truck at least lol

Haven't hunted this farm for some time now, just got reacquainted with it about about a month and a half ago.... My first season hunting it I took a 6 point opening day and then the following Monday took a good size nanny doe.... Two mornings on stand and I was done for the season... Swore I'd never do that again, but if the chance arises I may just pull the trigger too fill two tags and save one for gun season...

I have two potential shooters I've been glassing for about a month now, the odds are in their favor as of now but I'm sliding in Saturday afternoon and setting up an ambush that I hope works in my favor.... I walked the perimeter of inside of the property looking for potential places the first day I had permission and they're coming from a neighboring property too his alfalfa field and coming towards a finger that I plan on setting up on.....the only thing is I'm not quite sure if they'll get too my range in the process... I purposefully stayed as far back as I can and still get a decent view of them as I don't want them too get any inkling what's coming their way lol.... No cameras this year at all... One of the least intrusive years I've ever spent in prepping for season.....
