The rut is going strong here in the Vermont Champlain Islands. I filled my buck tag with a 150 pound 5 point. He was grunting up a storm and was chasing does all over the field he came out in and I had to shoot him on the fly. 10 minutes after I killed mine I heard a neighbor shoot and his son got a very nice 8 point at least 180 pounds. After dark we were admiring our deer and another neighbor showed up with a massive 8 point dressed out to 227 pounds...a real monster. Must be that super moon.
