HELLO FELLOW BUCKEYES. . . WHAT HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN SEEING OUT THERE AS FAR AS BUCK ACITIVITY? I HAVE SEEN A TON OF DOES WITH SOME MINOR BUCKS, NOTHING TO IMPRESSIVE THOUGH. I HAVE BEEN SEEING MORE AND MORE SCRAPES THIS PAST WEEK. I THINK WITH THIS WEATHER STARTING TO TURN THIS WEEKEND MIGHT BE A GREAT TIME. FINALLY FOR THOSE OF YOU GOING OUT THIS WEEKEND, HOW LONG WILL YOU BE SITTING IN YOUR BLINDS OR STANDS? THANKS FELLAS/FELLETS!

Went out on just this last Monday evening tomy favoritehoney hole. I took a really good friend of mine with me, which I usally do not dowith this place. Usally just me and my father, and thats it. Anyway, I saw 6 total deer for the night. One decent buck, and the rest I thought were does, I thought that is. I saw all these deer out in a power line right way, and there was one that I thought was a really big doe, really big. Well turns out, that deer was a buck from what my buddy told me. It was getting pretty dark out, and was hard to see that far away. My buddy was sitting on the same power line, about 200 yards away from me. He said that "big" doe was a 10pt, probaly a 140-150", and had a very heavy rack. I knew right then this a buck that I have seen in the past few years. Been watching him since he was a 6pt, big six. Anyway, so yes I/we have been seeing some buck activity. Just not a ton yet, but I do agree this weekend should be the turning point. Good luck to you guys!

My buddy was out in Miami CTY this past Sunday morning. Had four young bucks following a doe. He also had a basket 6 pt and a wider 8 pt with little tine's fighting near him. All activity stopped by 0830. Does are far from being ready and it was just the younger deer moving.
