The deer are always there. When I lived in Washington I usually saw more blackmail with a light rain. Get out & hunt. Your chances are exactly 0% sitting on the couch & there a limited number days to hunt.

I think it really depends on where your couch is at.
I see tons of deer from my couch... :chuckle:

More deer in the yard than in the woods around here
 absolutely they figured it out

Don’t stress over filling tag, I think you kind of new to hunting. Most seasons are like life, lots of ups and downs. Often times it at those low points that things can make sudden change, just takes 5 seconds for your season to change. So keep that in mind and be ready for your opportunity.

Wow! The deer were moving yesterday. Saw a couple real nice bucks. Passed on 1 I'm hoping my grandson gets a chance at. Seen him a few times. And the other didn't give me a chance.  Also saw a forked horn that had one side drop down against the side of its head and then curl out a little below the jaw bone. Really cool looking but not in a spot to shoot. After the storm last night I'm thinking this morning would have been prime!
 Wanted get out so bad I'm antsy as heck. But going to church and then a celebration for 45 years of service from our pastor!

I think the grandson will make it out with me this afternoon.

Wish I could be out there now. I've missed the past two weeks with a flu bug. Rotten timing!
You'll never get a Big'un if you keep shooting Little'un's.

This is why I never go out in the rain. Been blackmailed too many times.

Crap monkeys.  I hope you’re feeling better and get out these last few days.
