Lots of FFTH land over there.  Drive roads at daylight and dusk.  Deer are moving all day.  When you get to a point that you aren't seeing anything mid day pound the draws and cover near where you see deer.  Later in the season it gets nothing but better.  I believe doe tags open later so you will have more company as the season progresses.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

You are going to see a lot of deer.  It's on you to decide what you want to shoot.  Keep in mind as pressure increases options decrease.  The deer you pass on day may not be there on day 9.  He may be dead or hiding out on property that you don't have access to.

My daughter got lucky and shot the deer she missed on day one on day three.

Good luck.

I'll probably hold off a day or two just to see what I can see but I have elk to kill in Montana and possibly deer.

I hunted 8 days when I had the tag. My goal was 140. I ended up with just that on the second to the last day. Passed on a lot of bucks. I’m sure it’s different from year to year. There was good horn growth this year. May find a good one in a short amount of time. Good luck to you guys!
