Hopefully depends on what I see
I've tagged out on 4 opening day in the past but its rare for me. I have to have a certain buck I want and then watch him a month before the season starts. I deffinitly don't have that problem this year as I havnt seen the first buck I'd shoot yet. But I've gotta say, as I get older i don't want it to end that soon. I think I've learned more from deer the years I didn't shoot any bucks.
As far as a buck goes? I would say there is a 95% chance I won't get a shot at one of my target bucks. On the other hand I full well expect to take out a doe opening day.
Not a snowballs chance in ____...
I'm setting in a new area opening day. I've walked it a few times. Never put a trail cam out so not sure what's using the area. I do have a few trails running through and 6 white oaks. It will be interesting to see what comes by. Got to love public land
If a nice buck walks by I'll send an arrow. Plus I will have the camera ready.
Hi All, New here. I don't expect to get anything on Saturday, I did get close to three does when scouting Last Sunday. 20 feet close and never did spook them. That was with dirty blue jeans and a black tee shirt! But with a bow in hand it is hard to get that lucky. For opening day I am looking for meat.
I will be sitting in my stand all day Saturday and Sunday on public land, possibly switching stand locations at mid-day. I usually fill one antlerless tag every opening weekend. Not looking to tag a buck till I take my week vacation from Nov 2nd - Nov 9th unless the opportunity presents itself.
Good luck to everyone who goes on out opening weekend!!!

Definitely rare for me but I would welcome it this year. Just bought a new farm and I have a camp to finish building. I could go for sleeping in on Sunday and driving my hunting buddies nuts with my generator and power tools.

I'll take a doe if the opportunity comes my way. Really would be shocked if I seen a buck that's on the list.
