I was down by caledonia this weekend. Saw two different 8 pointers with in 50 yards of each other making scrapes and rubs. Saw the same 8 pointer two nights in a row and shot him last night. Both bucks were chasing does with there noses to the ground. Heard one fight in the woods about 100 yards from me just couldn't see them becuase it's so thick where I hunt. My buddy also shot his first deer this weekend wich was a 6 pointer with a huge body on him. He was also chasing a doe when my buddy shot him. I would say it should be a very good gun opener if the weather cooperates!!!!!!!!!
