MN Guys...Buck activity?
I hunted this morning and saw nothing.
Went out again this afternoon and saw three bucks but nothing bigger than a basket rack.
What type of activity are the rest ofthe MNguys seeing?
Has anyone seen any mature deer chasing does?

RE: MN Guys...Buck activity?
Went out tonight, and saw 2 really nice bucks, but nothing close enought for a shot. cant say that I have seen any chasing going on yet tho. Went out this morning, and saw 1 little 6 point that must have broke its skull plate at some time. his right side was growing straight down along his face, down to his neck. Tried grunting at 2 of the bucks, but they didnt pay any attention to it. I think I am going to throw my grunt tubes in the weeds, I have never had any luck with calls around my area.

RE: MN Guys...Buck activity?
I have seen a few bucks chasing a little but nothing to serious yet, I had a small spike come running by with his nose to the ground thismorning when I was on stand.
One of my buddies had some luck with the decoy tonight though. He hadsmaller buck come in and circle it a few times, stomp its feet then trot away and come back a few times before walking into a cornfield, Then right before dark he had a mature 10 point that was standing with just his head out of the cornfield, he said the buck was snort weezing, rubbing on the corn stalks and making a few scrapes.The buck finally came out of the corn but he said it was to dark to shoot, the buck came within 10 yards of his stand when he circled the decoy, he said the buck started to posture when a doe came by and the 10 point started chasing her around.
