I just got back from opening day for archery deer season in California. Came across 7 doe and 4 fawns, but not one buck. Sometimes I just don't get it. This certain area was dense with deer period, but all of the bucks were just nowhere to be found. We hit the area early and covered miles, but no luck. I kept telling my father, "it's like they know opening day every year and when its season." He gave me the old "that's just hunting sometimes bud." Even though I was unable to harvest a buck I was in the mountains with the best father I have ever known and that's truely what the outdoors are all about!
