RE: Illinois Update - Pre-Rut
Rut or no rut - all I know is - with this cold front coming in (high of 38 low of 21 on Saturday) I know where my butt is going to be Saturday morning. God I love this time of year!
I'm still seeing buck in bachelor groups and does with yearlings. I am starting to see some scrape and rub activity. I haven't witnessed any chasing yet. I hunt in Macoupin County.
