Monday and Tuesday I hunted in Benidict (Charles Co) and didnt see any rut activity. Lots of old rubs and scrapes were present but nothing fresh. Had a heavy 1 antlered (3 pts on the one antler) come to me both days at 7 in the morning. It was his bedding area. He was useing the same area two days straight and was by himself so he either wasn' t participating in the rut or it wasn' t on at that time. I will be in the Briggs Channy Rd area of Montgomer Co tomorrow and Sat. Hope what you say is evident..
