I've killed 4 bucks so far and missed 2 while running dogs. I have killed an 8pt during bow season, 6pt during muzzleloader, and a 3pt and 7pt during general gun after i finish running dogs in the afternoon and sit in the stand for an hour. I didnt see much rutting action except around the middle of October. My brother has killed 6 bucks and my dad has killed 5 in the club across the road from the club i'm in. Most every buck they have killed has been chasing does, but the action has cooled down for the past couple weeks now. We have started to jump bachelor groups of bucks while running dogs so the rut is completely over here, which is no big deal to me because i love running dogs better anyway.
