In Mio, I saw nothing, but my uncle managed to get a small crown 8 point on the 16th and the following day he got a doe.

Me and the other 4 guys got nothing.

Went up 11-20 for the day, seen tracks on the roads, but no deer.

Took my youngest out for his first hunt... 10 days camping up north in a motorcycle trailer ( he survived beyond my expectations).
put a decent doe in the freezer for his family.  He's hooked !! 
Was a little bitter sweet for me.. first hunt since my dad passed (ironically on Nov. 15th 2011 at sunup).   
have to believe he was there with us.
