Did nt get to go where i wanted to this weekend, I usually hutn Ft. Stewart but i forgot to check out last week after i got a doe with my blackpowder so i am suspended for a week. Anyways, the rut is on on Ft stewart, had one grunting chased a doe past me last week and on Oct. 4th, had a big 8 come strolling through nose to the ground. The rut usually peaks on Ft stewart around Oct. 4th, but anywhere from the 1st of Oct and Halloween usually see rutting activity. Well, as for opening weekend, i went to a dog hunting club with my friend and missed a doe. Thats ok, I got a doe and a big(for down here) 8 pt with my bow in September.
