Today is sighting-in day

[zahc]

Tomorrow is opening day of shotgun. All day, off and on I could hear people sighting in shotguns in this valley where sound carries like crazy (can hear a horse and buggy from at least 2 miles away).

It's always a joke that the deer hear this and know that season is about to start.


Think they do?

yep.

i believe that the deer that have been around for a few years pattern hunters as much as hunters pattern them...

i have no empirical evidence to base that on... just my own instincts after chasing a few deer around...
