Deer season opens Sat. for most of us in NC. Good luck to all. Haven't seen too many acorns yet.

Not many acorns but the persimmon trees are loaded!!!

Thanks.

I'll be after my first (trad). I've got friends from KY and VA hunting with me, all next week.

Will (we'll) report.....but I'm the only one shooting trad. I fully expect them to fill tags.

Persimmons (at least in my experience) aren't touched by deer until after the first frost. At least that was what I had always observed -- may explain why I never kill much!!!! Good luck fellas...shoot em and cut em quick, deer meat goes in a hurry when it's 85 degrees!

Yeah thought I was ready untill I saw the weather forcast this morning.The places I wanted to hunt are set up for southernly winds and now they are calling for north east varible mess. :( Got to go to plan b and hunt stands ment for later on instead.Maybe it will change before Saturday.

J. Cook · September 08, 2009, 02:32:00 PM

I hear that...but, you know how it goes...can't kill em if your at home! Just hope for a bit of luck on our side and enjoy the first day in a tree!!!!

James Wrenn · September 08, 2009, 02:54:00 PM

Yeah I have not killed one from the couch yet. :D I will be there in one place or the other that the wind allows.

GMMAT · September 08, 2009, 03:25:00 PM

I'll take that NE in the AM.

If it does that in the PM......I'll have to drive 40min (which could be a blessing in disguise0.

Mr.Magoo · September 08, 2009, 03:53:00 PM

That's why I like those suburban deer, they don't seem to really care which way the wind's blowing.

J-dog · September 08, 2009, 04:45:00 PM

Yeppers I will be out there somewhere - probably where OI saw the big bear. I know they are passing through there just really sporadic on the game lands! like said cant kill em from the couch.

I'll be out there with you folks too. Flying back home to Wilmington area in the morning. Going to hunt with my dad and brother in Pender county.

I guess it's been about 20 years since I've been bow hunting in NC and am really looking forward to it.

Best of luck to all.
