Average around half a dozen, the ZERO sighting sits bring it down quick. :mrgreen:

Mostly 2 to 3 for me around home, but if I hunt the northern part of the state usually around 6 to 7.

I never really count does & fawns. I don't count buttons as bucks. The best that I can remember from last year my worst day for seeing bucks was 7 one day and the best day was 23 bucks. I can only estimate on does but would guess around 50-60 on the best day and 20-25 on the worst day. This would be on my home farm. On my river bottom spot (flooded out 3 years in a row) my best day was 1 buck and 3 does was my best. On my hill country ground my best day was 1 buck and 4 does.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.

Im averaging 1 in the morrning and 6 in the evening so far this year. Seems in the early season in WEst Wisconsin morning hunts produce little deer activity and evenings are dynomite. Then it is reversed once late october and November come. Anyone else notice this trend? Thats why I love morning Rut hunts.

BTW If you are hunitng a specific target buck all you need to see is 1 deer!

I probably average 1-2 deer a sit, that number could be much higher but when you hunt bedding areas on public land it kind of goes with the territory.
