So....I have been thinking that the rut, contrary to what most were predicting, is going to be later this year. I am in NE Iowa and locally the heavy pursuit phase of the rut has NOT started.
I'm starting to think your right... Smaller bucks doing some seeking and a little bit of chasing (also only at dusk and dawn) but the does aren't ready and the big boys seem to be MIA for the most part...
