Well...
Rut is in full swing here! I have seen everything from small bucks running does to bigger mature bucks locked on hot does to bucks fighting for territory.
Early last week it was mostly small bucks with a few bigger fellas running, chasing, grunting, etc. But with the cold snap late last week they are all about the pu-tang!
Up until Saturday night I still had deer refreshing scraps and making rubs in my area but less and less. They know where the does are now and are hot on their trail.
Peak rut (as far as I am concerned) is/was yesterday through wednesday. Maybe longer and maybe a day or two back and forth.
We now have 6-7 inches of snow on the ground with another 4 forecasted so it will be interesting to see what happens in the next few days.
Got mine but will be hunting with the wife. So good luck you guys!
