[QUOTE="orkan, post: 2668537, member: 25377"] I hunted my tail off for 11 days of a 16 day season before I clocked this guy at over 1500yds out. Some counties are putting up good numbers I'm told, but the vast majority of what I'm seeing being posted is tiny. All the outfitters I've talked with said it was a brutal year. I've talked to two local taxidermists, and both said it was rough... and one said this is the worst he's seen it since he's been in the business. To put it in perspective... I walked in there with a 152.5" 4x4 and you'd have thought a 220" deer entered the room. It dwarfed nearly everything else in there from this year. That... is mega sad. lol I think if you had access to the right property next year, it could be good for you. There's always a chance, but it's no secret that the maturity and horn quality of deer is in steady decline in NW SD. ... an the hunting pressure has turned opening weekend into an absolute circus. ----------- [URL='https://www.instagram.com/primalrights']Follow on Instagram[/URL] [URL='https://www.youtube.com/user/primalrights']Subscribe on YouTube[/URL] [URL='https://amzn.to/3txlBnp']Amazon Affiliate[/URL] [URL='http://www.primalrights.com'][IMG]http://primalrights.com/images/signatures/sig2.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/QUOTE]
