Michigan Opening Day

Yep, really bad here. Maybe 90% in some areas. So sad finding dead deer after another. Usually on water, ditch, stream or pond. Smell was horrible in September.

Yep I have family that lives along Leonard road by the spooonville hunt club. Went form seeing 60 deer a night to lucky to see one. Happened several year back also.

Well that at least helps the dnr with the quest to lower deer population. Since they seem to have made all the wrong choices with the new regulations moving forward.

Thank the Lord for buzzards. Two deer died next to a creek very close to my house in early fall. They were relatively young deer. I'm not sure what caused their demise, but it was very unpleasant for a few days. The buzzards were a welcomed clean up crew.

Live by the Grand River and Knapp St. found 40 dead every where, Egypt Valley CC found 80 dead, I use to see 10-18 a day, just now first doe with 2 yearlings this morning, the 30 minutes later 2 more does. Have 200 acers and must have lost over 98+ % of the heard around us. Take a few years to cum back if it ever does,.

Hey Muddy, where did you get the power from to run that winch? A separate battery or wired in somewhere?

I have an electric winch on boat trailer since boat weighs about 4500#. I just bought another plug and use same plug on truck. I ran 8ga direct from battery with built in breaker to back of truck. Convenient!!

It will it hit my families places harder last time and they bounced back much faster than we thought. Hopefully that stays the case this time
