Whitetail #2 down!

[DEER HUNTER]

He's not as good as my other one I posted but he's a much bigger bodied deer. I shot him while chasing a doe and hit him a little further back then I wanted but that's what happens when hunting in a swamp where the trees are 2' apart.

I've been hunting with my new AP4 but have had no luck so I took out my Remington 700 30.06 with new timney trigger and bingo.

he's sticking his tongue out at you    :P

[DEER HUNTER]

Yeah he wasn't real happy with me.

Which one did you put in it?  I ran the 517 set at 2.5#, and couldn't be happier.

511 Left hand set at about 3-4 lbs.

I'm waiting on 4 Geiselles (2 SSA E's & GS2's) I bought on Black Friday sale from Primary Arms to go in my AR's.  I'm really looking forward to seeing how they run in my rifles.  

The Timney trigger made a tremendous improvement in my 700.

Just heard on the radio today the kill here in wisc was down 25% this year.

Its been a bumper crop of Bucks this year where I live but I've noticed I haven't seen as many does.

Hard winter in the north the past two years, and I think the "cwd eradication" is finally taking its toll

[DEER HUNTER]

In Georgia we can take 2 bucks and 10 does and in truth I've never 2nd guessed that. But this year I've noticed the does were far and few in between.

There is a buck only time during December but I'm thinking 10 does are to many to take per hunter.

I've shot 3 deer this year and my freezers full however I'm trying to shoot one more for my parents.

I've heard the CWD is terrible.

Wisconsin over reacted no other state that I know have had gone to the eradication extent that we have

[DEER HUNTER]

Very unfortunate.

[shepp]

Yea the DNR really has their heads up their asses here on a lot of things

Michigan has also reported a 25 to 30% decline in deer kill, over all. Not so in my back yard, where we can't hunt them. So, I just take pictures.

Guessing your winter was as bad as ours over there across the pond

[DEER HUNTER]

That's one thing we don't typically have, a harsh snow filled winter that is.

One thing we do have to deal with is farmers that are sick of their crops being eaten by herds of deer. So they get crop permits and shoot any they see. I understand their frustration but as a hunter I don't want the deer wiped out either.

[shepp]

We can get crop damage tags up here too

[DEER HUNTER]

And I understand why but some take it a little to far in my humble opinion.
