[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 1369542, member: 4319"] One of the slowest openers I remember in the NE Oklahoma Oakey-woods. Also the windiest without a doubt. Very few shots heard. Maybe 5 semi-close shots all day yesterday. There were only 2 shots in the 7 hours I was on stand today, and they were way off in the distance. Usually sounds like a war zone. One of the heaviest hunted counties in the state, usually trails only Osage on gun kill in spite of being much smaller. It's HIGHLY unusual not to hear shots all day long on opening day. I was on stand all day yesterday, saw 0 deer. 7 hours today and saw a group of 5 does/fawns and then a lone button buck. Hunting partner did see 3 bucks dogging does outside camp yesterday midday. One was a nice one. He is bucked out after mistaking a little spike for a doe in bow season. Had to watch him stand there broadside and couldn't shoot. He also saw a little buck Sat. morning. No other deer were seen. This weather sucks. 19 hours in a tree in the warm wind over 2 days about fried my brain. Here's to calmer, cooler weather after this front comes through. Damn. [/QUOTE]
