[QUOTE="Pa pap, post: 886005, member: 74121"] It is your age if you can remember what it was like to see a herd of deer going through the woods! I fall into that category. I haven't heard a coyote call for the first 30 years of my hunting life or seen a tick either, but now both are plentiful. Guess I am lucky to have been hunting in the golden years of the sport. As for the quantity of deer, I think it depends on the area you pick to hunt. Some areas around my hunting spots are posted because they don't want hunters on their property for whatever reason. Their neighboring farmers, on the other hand issue red tags to get the deer off their crops. So you can still see small herds of deer depending on location, but overall the herd really seems to be thinning out. The area I was hunting on Monday I saw about 20 deer. Three deer together was the most for group size. One was an 8 point I had gotten on my trail camera but he never gave me a clean shot and walked down by me in the safety of the underbrush. I wish you better luck on your next hunting excursion! Let us know how you fare. Pap [/QUOTE]
