(Editors note: Southwest Michigan deer hunter Pat Kleppert has chronicled his hunting season in a region plagued by the EHD virus.)
This season has been a struggle. The lack of older bucks and does makes it tough to motivate myself to get up early and climb into a tree every day.
I haven't hunted as much as I had hoped and that is certainly due to the lack of deer here in eastern Cass County. While there are deer being harvested in my area, the numbers are way down. I stopped at Scott's Deer Processing in Jones and he said that his numbers are certainly down from previous years. He did have a few in the cooler and some ready to smoke.
