I plan on returning this year to hunt Manitoba (Ochre River area) and I'm wondering how your winter has gone? I understand there were some really bad ones a few years ago that killed off a large portion of the herd. I hunted 4 days there last year and only saw maybe a dozen deer. Thanks for your responses.

Winter has been good I'd say! Had some weird melts and freezes but overall as far as damage is concerned I wouldn't think the winter was any worse than average. Of course that's a big generalization. Manitoba is twice the size of Germany.

Deer hunting is still a very far cry of what it once was but I feel like we're in the beginning of the "rebuild" stage

Should be another good year for fawns. Last year and this uear have been kind to the deer. Its been an ez year on the adults so far. Im looking forward to fall and seeing what the numbers look like.
