Any luck opening morning?

[84hurst]

20+ people and not a single deer (buck only area) at my camp. I spooked a big doe eating from an apple tree 10 yds outside the cabin. She ran a few yards and stared at me for a couple minutes. If only I was in a zone that allowed me to shoot does...

[URLOZIN]

Out of our group of 4 two people each got a doe yesterday, and my dad got a nub buck and a coyote this morning. I didn't see snything but a turkey and two coyotes.

[Monstr913]

we haven't seen or heard crap, haven't even heard many shots...talked to some locals and they were having no luck either. weather is to warm thats the problem.

[xxtremeteam]

my father in law got a ten pointer and brother in law has seen nothing

[u_say_go]

we hunted the Northern Kettle Moraine near Kewaskum this weekend and got skunked, didn't even see one. TONS of shooting nearby though. Stopped counting after 30 shots, all before 9am.

I didn't see anything. My friend shot a small buck. His stand got loose so he layed on the ground. He fell asleep woke up to a text from his gf and saw the buck standing by the bait. Talk about luck

[Rocket Power]

Nothing here. The Dnr came out to my stand. He said it was really quiet yesterday, although one 13 yo kid shot 9 times at a doe and it walked away he said.:rolf
BTW this is in Walworth Co.

[civic600]

We stoped hunting in Kewaskum 3 years ago. It's full of idiots. Most of those shots were probably just people fvcking around.

[84hurst]

Well, we got skunked again today. Far cry from last year... more than 5 hanging after opening weekend. I'll try again tomorrow, we have a couple drives on some public land and we'll try to push them onto our private land. And we're dealing with some asshole that has a permanent stand set up 15 yds from the road, with a bait pile ACROSS the road, AND he was shooting tonight. Bullshit! If he shoots and hits a deer he'll get a visit from the DNR.

[94greenbandit]

Saw three Does but not able to get a shot off. Crappy other than that

[jimez1]

Haven't got anything here either. A few shots here and there but mostly quiet. I am up by Eagle River, sure not the deer up here that thier used to be. (insert sarcasim here) I am sure that had nothing to do with all those years of T-zone and earn a buck though.........The DNR can't be that wrong can they?

[07ROUSHSTG3]

very quiet up here in northeast FDL county.

[Korndogg]

I hunt up in Florence county on the border of WI and MI and I saw 4 doe. Too bad I couldn't get a doe tag this year. There were 11 zones that they didn't allow to have doe tags this year and they were pretty much all right up there.

[URLOZIN]

It's going to be a COLD winter, the deer from this year had more fat and the thickest fur I have ever seen.

I'm going up wednesday morning threw Sunday.. i have a cabin and 50 acres in Florence.. we are on 2ND crossing rd. you turn left just before you go over the river towards crystal falls.

[Korndogg]

Nice. I wish I had enough land up there so I didn't have to hunt public. I hunt right off of the river. My parents cabin is in michigan and we take a rowboat across to the Wisconsin side and hunt on power company land. It sucks too because I'm laid off until Monday so I have this whole week off but I didn't want to go up there and hunt alone haha.

[SSDude]

Didn't see anything for 2 days.
We have so many coyote where we hunt 10 miles south east of Eagle River it isn't funny

[URLOZIN]

The coyotes are nuts by us to. This year I saw 0 squirrels and 3 coyotes. Last year I saw about 50 squirrels and 0 coyotes.

[Rocket Power]

we have at least 2 coyotes by us that we've see together on the trail cam. I noticed a lack of squirells too. maybe like 3-4 instead of a dozen that won't shutup.

[Anakonda69]

we seen one deer running across the road yesterday on our way back thats it heard 2 shots in the afternoon, thats it seen 1 deer hanging around here...and now its supposed to rain, wonderful

[DirtyMax]

I'm pretty sure I'm giving up gun hunting until further notice. Bow only might be the plan for a while.

[Old Dog]

I tried hunting a new place this year in Jackson cty. Had 5 does come past first thing in the morning. I held off waiting for some horns and never saw another deer. I did hear at least 100 shots from around the area, so I know there was a lot of activity.

You're killing me. I need a doe since I'm in a EAB area. Last year I had to pass on a 10 and 12 pointer because of the stupid EAB

[flyin_blue_egg]

i hunt by black river falls. the last two years i saw 6 deer each from the stand i hunt. this year I saw a doe on sunday morning, but didn't have a good shot at it. since i was there till wednesday i thought i was bound to see another one....well i didn't. we're thinking about going up to catawba next year

[Old Dog]

A couple of the guys I hunt with stayed behind and hunted our land in Black River Falls. They reported a pretty quiet day with very few shots heard. What was amazing was the amount of deer activity recorded on the deer cams at night. Quite a few deer moving with a 4, 8 & 10 pt coming past the camera. We can't seem to find em during the day.

[Monstr913]

me and my brother seem one on a trailer on our way home tonight and there was plenty hunters on there way back not showing off there catch. were going back up to hunt the weekend, were gonna try Necedah Wildlife Refuge and see whats going on there...only thing that sucks its buck only

[84hurst]

Well, after 5 days, not 1 deer hanging. This is usually a very sucsessful area too. Last year we had 5 opening day. So I guess the buck only zone isn't a bad thing. In 2 years the deer should be thriving and multiplying. We will have prolly another 5 or so people with us this weekend so wish us luck! Be safe and shoot straight!

[Josepy]

Shot a 8 pointer tonight. After not seeing a deer for 3 weeks he came in at 2:30 with a forker following. Shot him at 30 yards. He ran 20 and fell over. Took 3 hours to get him to the truck dragging through a swamp. Not fun.

Did you get him in rib lake?

[Josepy]

Did you get him in rib lake?

God no. My friends who go up there did not see a thing. I do not go up to Rib Lake anymore. Not worth it to me.

[84hurst]

I understand but in a couple years there should be plenty to shoot at if they keep up with the buck only. Hopefully.

[That_Guy]

saw two timber wolves.. and a doe.
