What kinda Rut activity are yall seeing? Seeking and chasing is starting to heat up over here.

4 bucks so far this morning. One made me look again but too small. Lots of movement. Not sure if from being bumped or seeking. Buddy in GA says his hunt club is seeing them moving.

I went out the last 3 days of our black powder season here and didn't see a thing. Think is was over pressured before I got there. The game warden also said the deer population is way down because of the drought we have been in the last 4 or 5 years. Got plenty of rain this year but it will take a while to rebound.

I found no sign of the rut at all. No scrapes or rubs. Hopefully I can find one or get out of state if time allows. Good Luck All

I have to step down as a member of our team, and replace my self.
I will be having sugery on my right foot, November 11 - 2015, just three days before Gun season opens in N.C.
So my hunting this year is shot.

Welcome your two new Team Members.
And Good Luck.

Hey guys thanks for letting me play on such short notice
My name is Don and I moved from Iowa to Montana a month ago
I was able to get an over the counter non-resident antlerless whitetail tag for region 3 so I'll be out looking for a doe to add to the books

Jrbsr, Sorry about your foot and season. Hope you heal up quick and get ready for next year.

Welcome to the team Don.

Hey it's WIbuckchaser checking in. I got lucky and got in as an alternate. I totally spaced out the sign up this year. Over the years I have had some pretty good luck putting points on the board, never a ton of points but usually some. Our gun season starts 11/21/15. Seems to be a few deer running around in the county land I do most of my hunting! Good luck guys!

Opening Weekend
 

I was able to make it out to my place Sun. I was only able to make a evening sit(5'ish). As I'm walking into my stand location, just before I make it, I see a nice 10pt. under the feeder. I crouched, got my rifle set, just as I was taking it off the safety, he looks up at me...tail end waves bye-bye.:mad:

I've been told that there is a lot of chasin going on around the area but I'm not seeing much action at all. Its pretty wooded by the house though so maybe they just arent using that area for it. I'm headed out to some public land I like about 3 hrs away to do a little bow hunting. maybe find a spot before the rush during gun season. I've been wanting to try to get out of state maybe to Texas or Kansas to change it up a bit. Just hard to convince the friends to come with me and hitting a new area far from home by yourself can be kinda daunting

Spent 3 days hunting and only saw a couple of tails flagging in the fog. My buddy got a nice one though:


I'll be going out with my oldest son this weekend and have 3 days off for Thanksgiving.
