Default RE: Rut activity around country? Especially MO

Im just southeast of central mo, and rattled in two bucks on Sunday, a forkhorn early, and an 8 pointer an hour or so later. Then in another spot 1/4 mile away, On two consecutive hunts, one evening andnext morning,I had a small 8 and a 5 pointer come in to a tree with 3 scrapes under it,at different times,and work them repeatedly, both stayed for over 15 minutes, and made for some great video. Two nights ago, I had two trail cams set up on two seperate scrapes 1/2 mile apart, and caught the same buck with a doe(same doe too I guess) at both scrapes exactly an hour apart to the minute (2:32am) He is a good 9 pointer and is eveidently not letting this doe get out of his sight, now just to find out where she stays. The rut is right around the corner, and the temps are dropping, next week we need to be ready to spend all day in the stand as much as possible, they should be chasing within days. Good luck everyone!
