Well, this is hands down the worst week of hunting in my life!
#1 trespassers, I have permission to hunt about 6 different properties and I know everyone else who can hunt the same, funny I saw orange everywhere and none were people who had permission. I am not the owner or manager of the land so my hands were tied other than a few “kind” words.
#2 2 deer shot right out from underneath me on 2 different properties, again not the owner so what can I do! Neither deer I was going to shoot but literally shot within 50 yards of where I sat!
#3 Because of the above I have sat about 15 times and 10 of those I did not see 1 deer! I hunt southeast MN with high deer populations, to not see a deer is unheard of!
#4 I saw more big deer this summer and fall than ever before and was so pumped for hunting season, more than I can remember, to have this happen is crushing.
#5 I am still excited because I have bow and muzzy left and I know the big guys I watched all summer and fall are still alive and my whole season can change in about 10 seconds!!!!!!!!!
