I'm around Shelburne. Definatly the rut is on, my dad got a brute on monday, he was grunting and following a doe trail before he shot him. His neck is really swollen. Seen a 8-10 pointer chasing a doe wednesday at 10am right across a road and he had his head down the entire time following her like crazy.
seen a big buck today at 12pm when I got off work, he was trottin across a field, bucks are definatly crusing. We got 3 bucks hangin, 9 pointer, and 2 6 pointers....hardly seeing any does though. Bucks are really travelling, they must be having a hard time finding does as well.
another guy missed 2 huge bucks monday as well, my dad seen them running threw a corn field after the other guy shot, very big deer
