I heard they only killed 14 deer in the two days? If that's true that is very sad!

Must have been a good area. We all 4 saw deer and my nephew took a fawn Two other hunters in the area took small bucks.
I thought it was a pretty good hunt. Excellent weather for muzzy hunting!

Bow at BO is usually tough. It's a good time to scout an area out. Things are better when u can carry a gun!

I was there this past weekend and hunted both Saturday and Sunday. Had one doe come in on Saturday afternoon after sitting in the rain for hours. Never presented a clean shot opportunity. Sunday better conditions but fairly windy with zero deer sightings. Only saw one deer while driving to and from our spot all weekend. My partner had similar issues with only one deer (small buck) being spotted and no shot opportunity. Certainly a tough hunt with a bow unless you have a honey hole.

I was in there for the muzzy hunt and took a nice doe on Saturday morning and my partner took a small button buck that evening. We saw a couple more deer but didn't hear many shots. That place is awesome to hunt but you have to go into it with the right mind set. It isn't going to be like shooting fish in a barrel, they live a different life inside those fences. You don't have fence lines to hunt and the food source is constantly changing. Regardless i'll take any chance I get to hunt there, you never know what might walk by! And Brew was spot on with the 20% rating
