I just finished my 1st deer season in Ohio. Not quite what I expected, now it wasn't the area, so much as the property. I did a semi-guided hunt with Pike-Adams deer hunts at a price cheaper than a lease. It is a good property just the landowner wouldn't quit logging why season was on. Anyway saw a few deer, no bucks other than a spike. A huge 15 pt buck was taken a nice 10pt lost, but I managed to kill 2 anterless deer, which puts me at 60 taken during my tenure.Not sure if I'll do it again, but I will for turkey season. Good thing, bought a new smoker before season and my freezer died during. The last thing I wanted a new freezer empty, and a non smoking smoker. Not a problem now. Got my first taste of how fast the river comes up and then goes down 8 to 10' a couple weeks ago. No sweat this time,but I bet my times coming. Trimmed the dinning room out 2by rough saw cedar, had some leftover so decided to make a TV stand which I am very proud of. The little cabin is coming along and couldn't think a more peaceful place to grow old. Bub loves his fenced yard and he thinks he's top dog being able to let himself in and out.
