Anyone still getting deer ?

[tercel89]

Well it's December 2014 and I have only shot one young deer. I am a meat hunter and not a trophy hunter so I dont care about the antlers. But I have only saw three. I had a chance to shoot at some deer about two different  times but couldn't get my muzzleloader turned around in time. It took me 3 minutes to get my gun into a position to shoot and then they turned into a bush . They were about 30 feet from me :rant: . Is there anyone here that is still seeing deer active in the woods ? I'm just wondering if I am the only one having bad luck. Here's a picture of the one I got a few days ago . At this rate I can't be choosy , if it's brown without spots , it's going down , LOL

A saw a large doe and one about that size in Wilson Co. last weekend. Moving fast and no good shot. Heard lots of shots in the surrounding hills, so someone was getting something.

I've been seeing quite a bit of movement between first light and 0730a... absolutely nothing in the evening.

Nothing here southwest edge of Montgomery county.  Got two doe's about three weeks ago about 11a, nothing seen after that.  I see a few at night on my way in, mostly between 10:30 and 11:00p.

So far my son and Grandsons have bagged 9. My son called me the other night and told me my youngest grandson Logan age 9 bagged his first deerthat day An 8 point buck. Some of the meat is in my freezer. I was thrilled to hear also, he bagged it with of all guns my old Winchester model 94 I gave my son when he really began hunting deer seriously. He was about 18 at the time and it was one of the only 3 guns the thieves failed to steal in 1988. They were well hid in a false wall and didn't find it. Head is being mounted and pictures will be coming soon of mount. They are hunting on his land only and has quite a few deer on it. He has promised me one more before the end of season and I told him make it a young and tender one about 100lbs if possible....................... :up:

I saw 6 Saturday morning in Decatur county. Killed a big doe and missed a huge 8 about 11:15. Shot a treelimb a few feet in front of my rifle that wasn't visible through the scope. Got one buck tag left, gonna try to fill it next weekend when I can get back to the lease.

Coworker shot a nice 8 pointer last weekend.  Said a group of 4 does came meandering by, then another doe appeared followed moments later by the buck.

 I am hunting the southeast portion of Montgomery county. I am hearing lots of shots but then again it may be coming from across the river in the other county. I am hunting right at the edge of the river. Cheatham is on the other side of the river bank. Everytime I go out i hear at least 4 booms .

I haven't seen much lately in northern Maury county, but I will probably head back out in the morning for a few hours just to get out.  Even when I don't see anything, I still enjoy it.

no if we go sunday, we go to church on riverside by the traintressel that is being referebed, I was thinking we could leave from there and head over to the range once the service is over.

I hope to get a couple more this year. Am heading out in the morning.
Have 4 in the freezer and really need 3 more for burger to help through the next year....

Another doe down this morning. Had 5 come out across the field 260 yards away. Two of them turned and started trotting back into the woods and I didn't want to miss a chance for meat. Was hoping they would have came closer and maybe a chance to drop two of them but did not look like was going to happen.
Luckily the bigger doe of the group was standing still so put a 180gr TTSX into her lungs. 5 down and 2 more would be wonderful.
