Virginia Hunting 2011 Update

Nothing incredible so far but I have got a crow and a deer!

2011 Deer Season

How is archery season going for everyone? I'm seeing lots of does but so far haven't been able to get one down. No bucks at all yet. Hope everyone out there is fairing well this year!

Crow Hunting and Gobbling Report

Yesterday I went out to do some crow hunting and got a very pleasant surprise not involving crows. It was late yesterday evening, sometime after four and I started in on my crow call. What happened next made me check the time of day, a gobbler and several hens started going off! They were paying so much attention to my crow calls that I had to listen to myself and make sure I hadn’t grabbed a turkey call. I did have a few crows call back to me and two flew to a tree about 100 yards away but none would come close enough to think about shooting them. I did have a big smile on my face from listening to the turkeys though. I was already getting excited about the upcoming turkey season but now I’m up another notch from that. Are any of you hearing any gobbling yet or seeing any strutting? Good luck in all your pursuits!

2011

Another year has arrived! I never did get any more deer on the ground but I had a blast deer hunting last season. Time to turn my attention to small game and predators now. How did your seasons go? Good luck in the new year!
