What did yall get!!

My buddy lives right on the state line, he said duck season opened today also. He said it sounded like a gang war.

My phone is going crazy, so I have duplicate posts.

Good luck everyone! I hope all your family and hunters get a big one.

That was guys on clear cuts...

Saw a spike, 4 does and 2 fawns this morning and a spike and a doe this evening, 9 deer watched in all today. Looking for a set of horns, may take a single doe this season to make some jerky.

I am still hopeful for an opening in a club in Baldwin and an opportunity to join

Perdido River WMA was quiet on the east side. Very few shots and I saw nothing moving.

I want to check that place out. I picked up a map and it looks like it would be a promising area. I’d like to hunt it with my 44 and not my rifle.

Guys working there are ok but the state hasn't planted the food plots in the wma in the 3 years I have been here. They just clear cut a bunch of timber so it seems like it's not being taken care of by th state only used...

Only place I got that's reasonably close by...Just my 2 cents

One of my buddies got a 6, no pix.

Got this one this afternoon, he came in the food plot at 2:45. While waiting for my son to get me saw 2 spikes, 2 does with spotted fawns, a 4 point and a pretty big 6 point.

A good size for my neck of the woods in Florida. I'm not telling where...

My bride was in the stand by 2pm. Deer were out acting frisky. Biggest she saw was a 4pt. Saw some young bucks "hooking" the does. She sent a video of a bucking bronco 4 pt acting crazy. Something stayed off in the woods around dark, she couldn't I'd so no shot.

 

[Bay Ranger]

Saw nothing on Sat east of Jackson, AL. Talked to the guy that has a 240 acre lease near me and he said that they saw nothing on Sat , deer were simply not moving. I thought that it would sound like a "war zone" on opening day but heard very little shooting. Did kill one doe on Sun morning. Friend and I hunted Sat, Sun and Mon morning and saw only the one doe that I killed. Had a lot of pics of deer feeding the food plots over night, however, little movement sunrise to sunset.

 

[DixieReb]

Deer are as busy as fire ants on my lease, moving all hours of the day. I think the cooler weather got them more active than usual. Watched 30+ deer over the weekend. Cell cameras about to melt my phone with so many pics coming in.

My buddy got an 8 point this am. Granddaughter learning to clean deer. Hopefully she'll get one today! Hunting with my bride.
