We killed one of our biggest der ever on this date. It’s a great memory to look back on and brings me great joy.

With a Nor’easter predicted to start today and run into Friday, I decided to go out for an afternoon sit in one of my old stomping grounds that always gets good this time of year.

I covered a lot of ground before finding a set of tracks. Even after finding that set, I wasn’t impressed with the rest of my journey. There’s minimal feed in the area this year, and a lot of bucks were killed there last year. These two things have definitely put a damper on the deer population for this year. Without food on the ground, there’s not much to keep the deer around.

By the time I got out of the woods, I was highly disappointed. I’ll probably return there for late muzzleloader season, but I definitely won’t be chomping at the bit to get into the woods to see what’s going on, because not much at all is going on right now. I can’t see that changing too terribly much in the next few weeks.
