Best of luck to you PA. I hope as I am writing this you are gutting him out.

AF - Your rut is just getting started? WOW. I really just don't understand what happens out by me. I am in Richland county which is southwestern Wisconsin. Matt and I saw several bucks while he was home. All and I mean ALL of them that we saw from October 29th (and that I saw starting October 24th) were chasing does around. We came home on November 5th evening and headed back out on November 7th. We still saw bucks but not ONE was with or chasing a doe starting the 7th. Of all the does we saw from they ALL had bucks chasing them or in the area until the 5th and all of them seemed very on edge and had been running. Again starting the 7th we saw several does and they all seemed very relaxed and not one of them had a buck following them. Does anyone think that our rut could be that much early compared to others?
