I'm heading to Mid-Michigan for the weekend and am just wondering what I should expect...although what I expect doesn't necessarily ever happen in bowhunting! Are the bucks chasing yet? I'm sure the young'ns have been curios and are pestering the does, but has anyone seen anything decent trailing a doe yet? It should be getting pretty good very soon (hopefully) if it hasn't started to heat up already...

A few bucks have been chasing but it is just the norm... We needa little while yet. Everyone is getting pretty antsy about the rut being too early this year. Good luck, let us know how ya far. Where is mid-michigan? PM me if you'd like.

Mid-Michigan is just the general area...but to zero in, it is southeastern Saginaw Co. We've got about 200 acres of private ground split up in three seperate chunks within a 2 mile radius of each other that we own. About 70 acres is soybeans, so that leaves 130 acres of woods they could be hiding in! I recently moved to Chicago for work, so my hunting time is definitely limited this season. But, I will be able to hun these next two weekends and then again during gun season from Nov. 15-25! Gotta love how I planned out my last few days of vacation!

I go to school in Adrian MI and have only seen one little spike chasing a doe. That was last weekend, but the doe certainely wasn't ready. I think another or so yet and things will be geared up pretty good!!
