RE: hunting wisconsin
The rut is picking up here in wisconsin atleast where I hunt but i dont think it is in full swing yet. Sometimes I see doe following bucks. It could be a high doe to buck ratio and the doe are competing to get the buck.

The bucks around me right now could give a hoot about the does. I've had more does respond to calls and rattling than bucks right now. They are moving, just not responding quite yet.

RE: hunting wisconsin
It seems that the Wisconsin Rut may be running a little behind right now, theres been some chasing in Central Wi but not much, I have a feeling they will be chasing hard come gun season next weekend. I shot this 240lb bruiser last friday nite using the growl. He doesnt look that big but on a state inspected scale that is what he dressed out at.
