It has been a good deer year here. I took a medium sized doe in the front yard last Friday. I had my choice of seven that were not paying any attention to me until I pulled the trigger. And this was on the next to the last day of the two-week buck-rifle season.
That deer had more fat than I've ever seen before on a deer.
I don't know if that means we had a great growing season, and or if the animals are getting ready for another very bad winter.
