Last day of MN muzzle loader. It's been a horrible season as far as deer numbers, rifle through muzzle loader. Very few deer sightings and zero shot opportunities. We got snow Friday night into Saturday morning that totaled up to a 5 to 8 inch range in the forest. I walked a couple of miles mid day yesterday and didn't see a single set of deer tracks. I did see some fresh tracks this morning while walking out to my deer stand. I'm afraid if I do see something this morning it will be a doe and a fawn and I don't think I can do it, seeing how low the deer population is. I'm glad to be out in the forest with fresh snow though, at least it finally feels like deer hunting. It's been a strange season, warm temps for the most part.
Missy shot an absolute tank of a deer yesterday afternoon at her deer camp with her fiance. He's a straight Y beamed 10 that's probably 7" past the ears. Im pretty sure her face will be stuck I'm smile mode for months!
