Weekend after the opener.
« on: October 16, 2013, 10:25:45 PM »
Does hunter activity calm down any the following weekend after the opener?  Trying to decide if it's even worth going out again.

The insanity of the weekend never seems to change around here.  Weekday mornings and going high seems to tone it down a little.  Not very many deer up high where we hunt, but I think the buck/doe ratio is a little better.  Plus, hunting for more than 15 minutes without seeing a hunter leads to a lot more enjoyment for us.  And hunting anywhere is usually better than working.
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

in my area ive yet to see a single hunter leave their trucks this year.  honestly not one.  the closest was some old dude sitting on his tail gate with his rifle in his hand, watching a hill that was 200 yards away at the top.  just get where you cant see a road, and that solve 90% of your problems
