With gun season starting tomorrow I decided to look over my bowhunter survey for this year. 75 hours hunted 21 bucks (16 “forked”) 30 does including fawns. Not too bad, saw deer most every outing. Anyone else care to share observations? Additional info: 109 squirrels and 29 turkey (26 gobblers)

Wow. You counted the squirrels. My job is all about record keeping so I dont want to keep records hunting.

If I didn't see 1000 squirrels , I didn't see any. My neck will never get better looking for what's making noises.

I have seen a ton of squirrels also and just about as many fox squirrels as gray!

One of the.most interesting statistics is the amount of spike bucks in the total buck population. Interesting to compare year to year.
