Thinking this might be the better place to put this one out there.
With all the hooting and hollering and trespassing over the past week in my backyard, I think I'm going to switch to the december hunt.
anyone else to the ML hunt instead for similar reasons? less stress that way?
Yup....best time of the year to Hunt and the best gun to hunt with..
Definitely much quieter. Just hope its cold and snowy. Warmer years can be difficult. Worth the piece of mind for sure. Seldom hear a shot in my area.
I've always considered it but I'm concerned about road travel that time of year. There's definitely a lot less pressure but the snow can be very deep in my area.
I'm thinking of going the other way as I haven't been drawn in 3 years now.
Short answer...yes and yes
I hunt it as well. And also November regular seasons. Nothing better than ml season
I hunt November every year BECAUSE there is more hunters out there. Gets the deer moving. I also find the rut is on better for November than December hunt.
Deer are more nocturnal in December for whatever reason around here.

thanks everyone.
You could just hunt archery and never have to deal with it at all with a real long season.
Cheers
haha of course.Quote:

You are 100% on the money ...you know those awkward days between Xmas and New years (when your house is full of people who annoy the chit out of you) nothing better than heading into the bush with your bow for 3-4 hrs. :)Quote:

yeah this year would be a good year for the ML hunt with that dang standing corn taking so long.Quote:

i've been following your posts. what a great year indeed for you guys!
Oh we’re having a blast now we are playing around to much haven’t even pushed yetQuote:

We have seen way more deer than any other year even turkeys walking around during sits guys all are saying what a blast their having
We’re just bad shots lol
We always hunt the second hunt. I hunt with farmers and everyone is to busy working in November. Plus there is way to much standing corn in november
Theres still too much standing corn this year for December hunt to.Quote:

Been hunting the December hunt for 15 yrs now. No one out in december. We only hunt the afternoons as we sit on food, bean if still up or left at the edge of the field, winter wheat is good too and standing corn cause its noisy and wait. The rut is usually over and deer just want to fatten up.
exactly....good to see a kindred spirit :)Quote:
