Firearm opening day is tomorrow here. 60+ degrees and sunny is the forcast, so I'm not sure how much action there will be.
I've got to restock the freezer for another year. Good luck to you.

New Hampshire shotgun/rifle opened today.
Not many hunters were out there. Very quiet in the woods today, well at least until a small six pointer showed up under my stand. Actually it's a fork horn with brow tines, 130 lbs.
We're all in this together! (3)

Finally chiming in after a successful opening day here. I took 4 doe on opening day, they average about 100 lbs each. I never would have thought I would be done hunting after the 1st day (I'll take it though because it's giving me more time on my new 4300). I actually saw 20+ deer, which I was really suprised about with the weather pushing 70 degrees. As soon as I process these, my freezer will be packed. Lots of jerky, steaks, and new recipies this year.
I'm with Hillbilly on the antlers; not much you can do with them except pay a taxidermist too much to have them mounted. There's nothing wrong with bucks though...I just really enjoy the sport, and we eat venison all the time so I can't tell what it is wrapped in freezer paper.
