I've been seeing some signs that the big ones are on their feet checking a few does. The younger bucks have been checking and chasing for going on over a week now. I did see a good buck chasing a couple of does last week and my dad saw a mature buck checking a couple of does this past weekend. I don't think it's in full swing, but it's definitly picking up and will be peaking soon. You need to be out there as much as possible now.
