I did not harvest a deer while in Calhoun County this
week. I had planned on at least harvesting a mature doe, but the best of
plans don’t always work out.
I believe that I did not hear as much shooting as usual
during the first four days. I’m not sure if this is due to less hunters
or hunters being more selective.
Overall, the fall hunting season has been very warm. I
can’t remember a season being this warm. I have to blame my inability as
a hunter on something.
We have an upcoming doe season. Be sure to purchase your
class N stamps. Bear are also about to be in season. One must purchase a
bear damage stamp in order to harvest a bruin.
If you harvested a large buck or had an extraordinary
hunt, please email me at
coryboothe@verizon.net. Good luck and be safe.
