I didn't see as many deer as last year, but I did see more nice bucks this year. I had 1 chance at my dream buck this year, but I passed on an iffy shot. I was real disappointed in the rut this year. I did see some rubbing and scraping, but very little chasing unfortunately. I've been fortunate enough to get a 10 pt. and a doe, and I have one tag left to fill. So, overall I'd have to say this season has been good.
