Bucks are out seeking right now but the does arent ready just yet. If you have days off coming to you, start taking them NOW. The wandering has begun.

I went out this past weekend Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I did not see a single buck trailing any of the does that came in. In fact 2 different does still had their yearlings with them.

Hopefully the action will pick up next weekend(next chance I have to hunt[:@]), but then again I'll be spending the later part of Saturday hanging out with my buddies from West Point, should be a good weekend [8D].
