Dad, wife and two brothers are headed out. My multi hasn’t hit the mail box yet so looks like I’m a spectator.
Slinging arrows and flinging lead is in my blood!

Sitting out the first half of early archery for deer.  Got plenty of  options at the back end.

Good luck out there.  Watch out for fawns with does.  I watched a lone doe for 15 mins this am and finally 2 fawns came out of the treeline to her.

.
We have 2 does that each had twins this year.
.
Only time we have seen the fawns is on camera, or at night.
.
The does?

Got a lot of things going on in Sept, decided to sit out archery season this year and instead I'm hunting elk with the muzzy (drew a cow tag) and rifle deer. Been about 15 years since the last time I sat out archery elk season.

Sitting out the opener as well. Mom broke her hip and I'm the lucky one spending time with her, I will say she a tough lady for being 87. After a half of hip replacement she's up and walking with a walker and cane's. I'm hoping to have her healed enough to go after deer in rifle season.

I plan on going out. Will probably take my youngest son (10) with me, and hopefully let him experience harvesting a deer. He’s almost through hunter ed, but isn’t super motivated.
When I inevitably choke to death on gummy bears, I’d simply like it said that I was “killed by bears”, and leave it at that
