The last three years I have hunted 3rd and 4th seasons with success. The previous 12 seasons, we hunted 2nd rifle season. I will be hunting 2nd rifle season this year if I draw. Our old gang has petered out over the years and only 2 of us old timers remain with another guy that has been with us off and on for 8 years. A couple of the newer guys are beginning to irritate me so I’m about ready to leave them with it. I like 4th season for bulls but my buddy doesn’t want to hunt when he can’t get a deer tag. Besides, the new structure pushes the 4th season back a week into Thanksgiving after next year. Happy Trails
