| Glad to know I'm not the only one. No doe tag this year and I've seen 12 of the little girls. I've seen some bucks but nothing I could/would shoot at. I don't hunt over apples but I know a lot of hunters this year that say the deer are not interested in them. We have had some miserable hunting weather to deal with though. |

| Hang in there guys... has it been warm and the bucks have been bedding down, not milling around? |

| I've got 12" of rain in about 6 days! Everything is a flood and the deer are staying in the thick stuff. |

Oh, guess I have never had a hunt screwed over because of rain. A hitherto unseen (on my part) advantage of semi-arid climates...
How much longer do you have in your season? |

| I passed on a 6 pointer yesterday. Sure hope I don't regret that decision! Still a week and a half left so I can afford to still be picky but after this Sat. any legal buck is going. |

| The VERY SAME ONE!!! You don't see deer with 14 points up here all that often and the wouldn't you know it, the one I'm tracking gets nailed by a car. It truly was a monster buck. Damn I wanted that deer so BAD!! |

Sheez... that is some luck. 14 pointers are pretty rare down here too (so are whitetail for that matter), so I can understand the disappointment.
Well this is definitely the first big buck I have heard that got away because it got smooshed by a vehicle. Were you stalking it when this happened, or just happen to be in the vicinity? |

| Never mind on the stalking question, just went and re-read your original post... |
