Unfortunately, I have to accept the fact that the season is officially over. We had some serious snow fall followed by extremely cold weather. Both of them killed the last hope I had to be able to hunt till December, as I usually do. I still managed to get out for a few very short hunts before the conditions worsened.

Found eight early coppers, a couple of them were in a good condition.

Wonderful finds Anton! I’ve always wanted a spread eagle hp!!! And that DBLC is a nice one. Sorry to hear the season is ending. If you need any extra season you’re always invited to NJ buddy. Killer hunt man

A really nice assortment of early finds. We got over 10 inches of snow and now we are looking at temps of 5 degrees.
Congrats on all your finds.

Thanks man. Unfortunately the 2018 season was the roughest one I have seen. Late spring, extremely hot and dry summer, rainy fall and than this... Just a crazy weather all year long. Still manged to find some good stuff this year but I was sure hoping to explore some new areas in the fall.

Thanks for the invite man, very nice of you.
