I'm getting in on this discussion rather late I understand, but I've seen just the opposite in MO. This has been the most productive rut I've encountered. I was seeing bucks the last week of October, just upcruising. I RARELY see bucks before November, and by the 3rd I had one on the ground. The days after I shot my buck, we were at our place in southern MO. We saw.....let me think here.......4 or 5 mature bucks chasing does, and at least twice that many young bucks chasing....
We have seen lots of rubs, scrapes, and lots of movement. I haven't been in the woods in over a week, so I'm not sure what's going on out there right now.
Dude it was your year
Can I have my mojo back
I, mobow the buck slayer, do hereby transfer any and all remaining buck mojo back to my Jedi Master, germ....He can do with it what he damn well pleases!
