Took my 12 year old daughter this morning. We only saw one doe and the back end of one that we don't know what it was. Not much luck but we still had a good time.

hunted this morning i had to leave at 10 but saw a doe at around 8 that was bedded in the grown up field i was hunting and saw a little spike at 7 this morning. the other two hunters combined for 4 bucks all 1 1/2 yr olds and 3 does. one of the bucks was chasing a doe. the 3 seen not chasing were seen between 11:30 and 12.

[Bows over Guns]

seen 10. 8 does a six and a four pointer. both messing with does. would chase for a second then quit. i dont think the rut is quite in full swing yet in my area.

Took my oldest son this morning. All we saw was a lone doe at 0600 and then a doe and a fawn at 0745. Heard a few shots on surrounding farms but nothing like the war zone they usally are.

Saw 2 this morning around 8 that were moving kinda fast. Couldn't tell what they were, guessing does. Heard all kinds of shots this morning in my neck of the woods. Most I heard in a few years on opening morning.

My brother who was with me killed a small doe around 830.

Got in the woods and setup around 6:00 ..stayed till noon saw a big 0 ..wind really pickedup around 9:00 and the leaves sure are sticking to the trees longer this yr..Last yr i satup in the same tree i could see 20yds all around me .This yr i can barely see 5 yds. I heard about 10 shots this morning.Nothing like i've heard in the past. I'm heading back out in about 30 minutes to setup on a scrape/rub line till 0 dark thirty.Stil all in all it was great to be out in the deer woods this morn.

I drove around this morning around 11am saw lots of hunters coming in to fuel up or get food. Didn't see any deer our of 30 hunters no one had a deer.

It really surprised me, I have been in W. Kentucky for 3 years and here in SE Kentucky now Big difference in deer hunting and the amount of monsters. It would seem

From reading some of the posts here; I believe the Deer are moving more at night. Evening hunts might be your best bet.

Seen 9 this morning , all between 7:45 and 8:30 . Big daddy was with 3 does , I could see his rack but could not get a shot . So not able too go back out tonight , but going too try in the morning !! He was working hard but his ladies were not in the mood yet . They were about 60 yds from me hard to get a shot !!:cool::D

[fred in boston]

my son bagged a heavy rack 5 pt about 150lb.

[Realtree man]

Only seen one 6 point here. I let him walk cause he is the future! :)

[Shelbyhunter]

Morning: I had a spike and a 115" 8 point come into the woodline I was hunting. I pondered taking the buck as he had a big body and swelled neck, but he looked to be only 3 1/2. I may regret that one.

Evening: I had a yote come in and he offered no shot and then at 5pm a little 5 point came into the urine trail I laid down. I just took video of him. After looking at him, I have over 20 pics of him on my trail cam.

Good day, can't wait for tomorrow!

[Cornpile]

Hunted all day in the stand,seen 5 bucks,spike 6pt two 8pts and one could not tell how big.Seen 7 does ,5 tom turkeys ,too many squirrels to count and a dang housecat . Biggest buck was a 18" 8pt heavy mass and all his tines were 2-3" long,let em all walk.

What an IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!

What did you do?

[EKY.MTN.HUNTER]

Man the little bucks were out cruisen. I drug a urine drag in behind me to my doe decoy. I saw 4 bucks before 9:30 and they all came in on the drag trail. First a spike, then a basket 7, then a 2 1/2 avg. 6, and finaly a basket 6 at 9:30. Stayed in the stand all day and the only other deer I saw was a spike at 12:00. 5 little bucks, I was pleased. I'm hunting down in S.E. ky and I think the big boys are still not all the way ready yet in my area. All I'm finding is little rubs and seeing little bucks cruising as well. Any day tho....

Went back out this evening at 3:00-dark and another big fat 0..i did see a bobcat. the woods were calm and quiet .I'll head back out in the morning..

[kwduke]

Stayed in the stand all day. Saw a spike at 7:30. Saw 3 does at 9:30. Had a busted up 1 1/2 year old buck chase a doe right under my stand at 3:30. Saw 2 more does before dark. Counting the the other guys I hunted with we saw several small bucks chasing does. No big bucks.

Took my Girl Friend who hunts with me alot. Well, we saw nothing but squirrels and coons. But the other guy that hunts with us haddn't been out in a while. Asked where to go and I say The ladder stand on the bottom. Well at 6:20am he kills the best deer hes ever shot. A good 17" heavy 10 ptr. He was all smiles!

i dont think thats the case,but deer always move at night ,unless its storming real bad...the deer were moving alot from were i was,and my friends said the same also,i counted 72 shots before 9:00 opening morning..talked to them this morning on the phone,while they were in the field and both said it sounded like yeasterday morning.
