Took a 4 wheeler ride at my cabin yesterday evening. I could not believe all the deer I saw. I have had this place since 2004. This is the most deer I have seen at this time of year since I have had the place. You guys know how pessimistic I am over the states deer kill but I'm really feeling good about this year., Can you believe im saying this? Lol

I've never noticed a negative or pessimistic attitude from you.

I was seeing quite a few down here up until a couple weeks ago. Now, I am just seeing a doe here and there with an occasional fawn. I haven't seen any in this subdivision all summer, which isn't normal. However, there isn't nor has been a shortage of deer anywhere I have been for about 2 decades. With the exception of the Cranberry. God Bless

There are deer in the Cranberry. You just have to get out and find them. :)

That's right. There sure are. And, I do find and kill them in the Cranberry. Every year. There just aren't nearly as many as once were.
I killed my first deer in there in 1985. With the exception of the years I spent chasing bow only deer during firearms season, one season taking chemo, and one year deer less, it has always provided. And, always will if I do my part.
This year I fully intend to kill a deer with a long bow in there if I am fortunate enough to get to go a couple times. Time will tell.
JR, make no mistake. I'm no Daniel Boone. Nor do I have a huge trophy room. But, up to this point, I have killed what I go after, where ever I went after it. Praise the Lord! I like to think I do my part too. God Bless men.
