I will say the first firearm season will be down -10% from last year.

Any guesses?

i gotta agree with WF… it is gonna be a great weekend to sit in a stand! In Tazewell they are calling for snow on Saturday.That 3rd dimension will really make sitting enjoyable. Seeing more deer than I expected during bow season. nothing like five years ago but an improvement over last year.

Seen 6 bucks and 3 does today in a grass ditch hiding around 9 when I was going to move my stand for after gun season. They were bedded a couple hours later when I drove back by. Only seen a few hunters today and heard a couple shots. Hope they stay out in that field.
