Deer season around here in WNY has disappointingly petered out. When we moved out here in 2001, opening week was constant gunshots in the morning. This year? Slept late. Maybe one nearby shot.
We really need to do a better job encouraging youth to get out and hunt! The only ones I know of locally hunts our land and the land next to us. Youth sports and electronics has carved into young adult spare time far too much.
