Anyone hunting in Woodville area?

[ST413]

I was wondering if anyone in the Woodville area is having a slow year seeing deer.  This season has been bery slow where I hunt, not seeing near as many deer as in the past.

My lease is in Chester about 15 miles out of Woodville. We have taken more big bucks than any other year but really haven't seen much else. We usually see three times as many deer but get less shooters. This year the sightings are way down but our kills are up. Lucky?

Sounds like it. I have only seen one shootable deer and very little else. It was a doe only saw it very briefly. Hav e seen a few other little does and two bucks one which may have been a shooter spike but could not be sure it didn't have any extra pts. I have seen as many deer in one hunt in the past as I have all year so far.

True on the numbers. There was hardly a hunt in previous years that I couldn't kill a doe. This year even those are far between although I have two of them so far.
