Hunted this morning, and it was the first time this season that I seen and heard a buck chasing a doe!! I'd have to say that starting today till the gun opener should be great!! Stay all day in your deer stand if you can make it that long!!

Yeah it happens often enough. Especially if you're hunting an area that you shouldn't be or are encroaching on someone elses spot. They'll take it just so you wont come back.

Oh, and its definitely on. Was out this afternoon and watched a small buck chase and mount a doe twice. Not full on breeding but after two attempts, the doe laid down and tthe buck laid down right next to her. I was hoping to take her and empty her bladder, but they laid down 50 yds from my stand and didn't even get up when I climbed down at 5:10. Pretty soon we wont be seeing any bucks cause of the lock down phase. This may be it for a couple of days.
