Squirrelhunter91 Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Last night in my backyard I had an 8pt that had a brown back, right down his spine was brown and a 6pt that had that beautiful buckskin color to him. The does had a faint hit of losing the orange/red also. OHH BABY! Deer season is almost here!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longislandhunter Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Re: Deer are turning brown! I've noticed the deer in my area are also starting to change coloration, at least some of them. I've also been seeing more bucks at night while I'm out patrolling at work. Like you I'm just counting the days until the season opens. On Long Island bow opens October 1st, simply can't wait.

mitrrophybowhunter Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Re: Deer are turning brown! Season starts Oct 1 here too. Won't be able to get out too much as I have my second daughter on the way October 4th. I tease my wife saying she did that on purpose to keep me home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

western NY bowhunter Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Re: Deer are turning brown! Yep...Ive been noticing the same thing. There's several nice 2-yr. old 8-pts. and a bruiser 3-yr. old 7-pt. that I've been watching feeding in an alfalfa field by my house since early June. I've been trying to get some video of them for the past 2 evenings and noticed tonight that the big 7-pt. is really dark already but the does and 2-yr. old bucks are still pretty red colored. Fall is definately knocking on our doorsteps boys...I'm expecting to see some "bare bones" any time now. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest whitetailarcher Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Re: Deer are turning brown! Had my tree cam out all summer and August 20'th was the first bare-bone buck! A little earlier than I thought but its such a great picture with the part of the felt hanging off his antlers. I 'll have to post pix (the last spot I put my cam in was amazing for bucks I'm planning on putting it back nd letting it sit untill sept 24th opening archery) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
