Prerut ain' t here yet!! This morning I saw several mulie doe herds with no bucks in tow. I did manage to see a number of bucks (1 real nice nontypical but couldn' t get within smoke pole range[:' (]), they were in small bachelor groups no more than 2 bucks together, so it is getting close I would say. The NT was with a 150 class 4x4. I did see 2 whitetails in the 130 class range sparring not 30 yards away. The deer were out feeding late today, when walking out at 11:00 I saw several just coming into the bush...not sure if that is a sign or just no pressure on them.

Hopefully I get a crack at the NT as I have till next saturday before ML season is over, got a good idea where he is living and decided to not spook him trying to get close..here' s to hoping.

Any luck JD? How about them tasty white birds? Shot my limit of sharpies and huns last monday afternoon...lots of upland it seems this year

Best of luck!
