Anyone else been hearing a lot of howling going on in zone 45? I was out this afternoon and heard what sounded like 10-15 different yotes out there. Saw 3 of them. They were coming into my doe bleat, but never got within 40 yards...
After it got dark and I came down the tree with the climber, they didn't move off too far. They didn't really seem to be too fazed by my voice either. Made for an interesting walk out in the dark.  __________________ Just a guy with a bow, some arrows, and a lot of hope...

I've had them run to greet me in the dark in the AM.
shoot a deer or drag a dead one back and set up 25 yards away and they will come especially in January-refer to legal season date s . You have 2-3 days to drop em before they eat the whole deer. Good luck

Oh yeah, that sounds like it'd be a real good time. Although I'd have to actually see a deer back there this season to make that possible... Gee, wonder what happened to the deer population in that area...  __________________ Just a guy with a bow, some arrows, and a lot of hope...

I've had that happen in zone 34. Kinda creepy but neat at the same time __________________ What makes a man a man? Is it his origins, the way he comes to life? I don't think so. It's the choices he makes. Not how he starts things but how he decides to end them.

One night they had a kill very near me it was an awfull sound in the dark. I was reluctant to get out of the tree but I lowered my bow and climbed down with my knife ready in case I had to get it on with one.
Was spooky.

I hear them every night out in 45 and 46. The yote population has increased in the past few years... __________________ If it's brown it's going down
