Hey guys, just got back from my 3 day hunt, I am confused....I have seen lots of bucks with does, not chasing them, and actually couldn't even tell it's that time of year from the way they were acting. Had does following bucks, does and bucks passing each other and continuing on. I've never re-called not seein chaseing going on. It's almost post rut looking to me, like the bucks are locked up with does. If so, it's really early for that to happen around here. Anyways.......Seen a bunch of little bucks, had 4 different ones walk right under me. I helped the heard and took out a mature doe my last morning there, and the last evening hunt I had 6-7 deer within 30 yards of me then it got dark, heard them walking all around me, heard one of the little guys making a scrape (which blew my rut theory) out the window. Anyways, I have the 11,12,13 off to bow hunt,then gun season starts the 16th, that'll really scatter the deer. On a side note...seen a 180" Perfect 12pt. staring at me 10 yards off the road. broadside, nothing in the way except air, only problem was, I was in my car at work on base.
