Who on here continues to hit it hard with a bow after gun season? What can I expect Dec-Jan???
I will hunt every day that I can until Jan 15th. Then take a couple weeks off and start getting ready for Oct 1 2011.
yep, back to the bow, as well as some upland bird hunting.
Then gun comes back in Christmas.

I plan on putting some ducks down and possibly breaking out the bow.
I've seen some great deer even after January 1, have yet to get close enough to one of them but they are out there. In my experience, movement really picks up here in a couple weeks, seems like they're trying to fatten back up after burning all those calories chasing each other around during the rut. I haven't had too much of a chance to bowhunt yet this season so I'm pretty amped up for the end of rifle.
Hogs need to look out. I don't shoot anything without horns, and since my wife doesn't like deer met and I give it away. My two are already down. Taking one of my sons hog hunting if he can find the time. CB
back at it with a bow, i usually carry my bow with me during gun season if im hunting alone... Late season can be awsome especially if u can find a good food source. But one thing u can expect for sure is it will be cold.
I cant wait for gun season to end. I will be able to hunt more and get more sleep. Late season is an excellant time to pattern a mature buck's stomach. I've taken 3 does and a mature buck so far this season (all bow kills) and hoping for more opportunities in the coming weeks.
