I vote for a November start. Modern firearm deer season will be over and we don't have to be out there trying to call with 1000 people out there shooting at everything that moves, it just makes for spooky dogs during deer season. Plus the pelts will be better for those that want fur.

I forgot about all those guys that go to Walmart and get a .30-06 and a hunting license, and think eveything that moves in the brush is a deer! Maybe November would be better.

It gets pretty scary and very crazy when those knuckleheads are out there. I was amazed at the sportsmanship (?) those guys. I have and it ain't pretty.
How many of you modern firearm hunters pass on a yotes while you are after deer? I will admit that I generally will take a dog or two during the modern firearm season, unless I am hot on a good buck. I always spend the remainder of my vacation chasing dogs after my deer has been harvested...
I forgot to add Bowhunter45 that 95% of the dogs I kill are called in. That's where the fun is.
