Take what you learned this year.....apply it to next year.......it'll happen. There are two weeks of muzzle loader left you know!!!!! With a few days to pick one up and zero it at the range first!
I'm still trying to get my son a rabbit!!!!!I'm actually really happy with the way my first season went, but I might pick up a bow for next year to hunt all three seasons.
I'm eager to get back to cottontails and those little ginger squirrel bastards while preparing for some spring turkeys!

Nothing again today.
Thought about taking pics and writing the editor of the paper a shame on you letter. But I don't want to draw attention to it either.
Where is the location......If I'm reasonably close I have some free time tomorrow could swing by and help you clean it up. send me a pm if you don't want to give up your spot.I bumped about 5 doe on my way into the woods. Well before shooting hours and still dark. They froze in the beam of my head lamp. I looked at them for a few minutes and shook my head. Once the beam broke from their eyes they were off. Naturally I didn't see crap after shooting hours opened.
On the way in I also came across some other jack wagon's f-en mess. He left 3 different gut piles in 3 contractor bags just thrown in the path. Also found a rib cage remaining from a carcass on the path. This is a path people walk their dogs on, walk with their kids, and take day hikes on. That kind of crap upsets me as it gives us all a bad name. Leave the gut piles in the woods - and why put them in bags which you then leave behind for the coyote to make a mess of. Looked like a damn garbage dump. WTF. Dude didn't want to gut them near his stand or maybe took them home and brought the gut piles back and dumped them. Maybe he jack lighted them on the path and gut them in the dark. Don't know but he's a douche bag either way.
I'm going to head out for the last day of shotgun tomorrow. Probably spend the AM in the stand and then hit the ground to try to make something happen. Maybe I'll bring some contractor bags and gloves and clean up the other ass hat's mess too... Some effen people... Not sure what else to do about it.

She is not the biggest but I am happy.
I was really starting to think I would not get anything this year......

I found this to be just sad, people do not need to hunt to go out and enjoy the outdoors. There are so many things to see out there.
""And it's not just hunting, but pretty much all outdoor-related activities like hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, even the visiting national parks. We're seeing a steady downward trend," he said. "
