Another Great Deer Season!

Georgia's 2022-23 deer season ends at dark today (Jan 8th.)

I was blessed again with opportunities at two great archery bucks (1 in Ga & 1 in Mo.) And a 7mm-08 buck and doe in Ga.

I keep an annual hunt log of deer seen, hrs hunted, etc.

I sat in a tree an even 100 hrs this season. Hunted 17 days of Ga's 121 day season and 2 days of Missouri's season (that was 17% of open season days.) Saw 148 deer from a tree (I don't count deer seen when I'm walking in/out.

50 of those were bucks, 88 does and yearlings, and 10 unknown sex deer. Bucks seen age estimates: 1.5 yr olds = 31, 2.5 yr olds = 11, 3.5 yr olds = 6, 4.5+ yr olds = 2.

All deer killed this season were on private lands.

Looking forward to next fall...and try to do it again...with God's blessings!

How did everyone else end up?

Dang great deer! Congratulations

Way to go.
Never saw a decent buck this year.

3 deer with the X bow a 6 pointer and 2 big does. Killed one yesterday and It's all cut up and ready for grinding tommrow. We can hunt till Jan 31st. I still have 2 doe tags but not sure I need any more speedy beef.

That’s a long season you guys have! Well, late anyways. Good going!

My deer this year!

Very nice love it when a plan comes together

Deer season for me is one weekend a year and shooting the first deer I see. That's about as deep as my interest goes.
You dedicated bow hunters have my admiration, though. I don't have what it takes to do that.

Great season Swamp. I am partial to the 7mm08.
Jurassic Park I like the sled had a guy
help me get one out this year with a
Sled

You probably didn’t have any snow though eh! Lol

Wow! What a season SW. I wasn’t near as mad at them this season as usual, but I shot a couple young bucks for special reasons (3 year old was with me for one and first wma bonus buck on another) as well as a doe. Passed more deer than I normally do including some nice up and comers. We still had a pile of meat in the freezer from last year. Was hoping to shoot one more, but never got motivated enough to go after Dec 1

Nice Deer!

Good deal. I already posted mine and sons bucks. I will hunt next Sat and Sun to finish out the MO archery season.

Terrible. Don't think I saw a half dozen deer all season and none with anglers. Not even a spike.

That is a heck of a Florida buck you got.

Great season you had SW.

Great job bud! Fine looking deer!

None of those are Florida deer. The Georgia archery buck was killed about 6 miles from the Florida line. The other 2 Ga deer were killed about 140 miles from Florida.

Congratulations

looks like you had a great year ,thanks for sharing

A great year. Congratulations

Great season as usual Swamp! Congrats.

I had a disappointing season this year. The turkey I hit bounced off the trampoline-like plastic grill of my truck and flew off, and apparently all the deer in my county recognize my truck...
When does y'alls bumper season go out?
