The conditions in Southern Oregon were dry. The blacktail deer holed up fast Friday night/Saturday morning before opening day. Deer numbers seemed average, but nice weather brought out hordes of hunters for a circus-like atmosphere.
I'll be using my trusty camo-painted dirty-06 with 150gr Partition handload with trusty ole IMR 4895. Hiding in the bushes in Rogue District looking for a nice blacktail. Good luck Mr. Nosler, where are you headed?
