    Never put a shell in my gun( again) but had a marvelous time with my boys and extended family,introduced a grandson to shooting 22s and deer hunting and all the cameraderie that goes with a hunting camp.Weather co operated

    Harvested a couple of bucks and shot some grouse.100% success!

    I took a nice heavy 4 point mule deer buck. No time to go after a whitetail due to construction projects at home that needed to be completed before winter really hit.

    The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who are bereft of that gift.

    Nope - Nada - 8-14/15 - Only ever saw mature Does nocturnal on cam. Future bodes well though, observed many yearling does and short spikes in daylight but nothing that would constitute more than 30-40lbs of eating, so they walked. Must admit it has been an off year though, lost my best friend/brother/hunting partner in March and was still out of sorts come hunting season, didn't put hardly any of the usual scout work/time in so was not expecting much to be honest.
    Many a dandy deer in town though lol.

    I harvested a nice 3 point blacktail in 2-12. Didn’t get out nearly as much I would have liked this year.

    My kids and I harvested 3 mature 4 point muley bucks, Oct 30 region 3, Oct 31, and Nov 25 region 5. All of them were more than 1km from the nearest rd and all 3 were rutting and chasing does.

    My son and I shot a whitetail buck each, and we tried for a doe but couldn't connect...Both of us turned down numerous small muley bucks early in October and my wife turned down one in mid-October. My boy was regretting his decision in early November!! lol
