Pretty slow around here, one of the slowest octobers I have ever hunted, still manage a few pretty good hunts though.

I had great hunts each time I was out!  A good October.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

I have had a slow October. Must not go where the birds are I guess. Getting to know more and more every year tho, hopefully it will get better. Never know till you go. I have had a good time when I have went, besides the opener where my gun broke.

October was slow hunting for me. Our local ducks were few and far between.

I can't complain had a decent opener.  Found a cool new hunting area last weekend going to hit it tomorrow morning solo I think.  Everyone is scared :chuckle:

I have been out twice. No shots fired. I am hoping to change that tomorrow.

Slow October for me too. Great October at the same time though! Might not have birds but I had an awesome time each and every time I went out  :tup:

1st deer (4 point) and 1st canvas back.  Hunting since 86, two 1st's in one month and can't remember getting that many 1st's even in one season.
Don't read my post if facts hurt your feeling.

pretty slow at nisqually.  there are birds, but the weather was way too nice and they just raft up on the bay.

a lousy october all-around for me, few ducks and the rivers are so low i haven't even done any fishing for silvers since the first week.
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun
