Who in P.A.......
 

is actually killing/seeing deer by using calls, scents and rattling within the last week?

RE: Who in P.A.......
 

My buddy peed out of his tree and a small buck came and peed on top if that counts. I grunt and use the can from time to time but I wouldn't say it has had any noticalbe results.

The buck I took on the 29th, last Monday came to my River Valley Deer Flute using grunts and contact calls.

I say that because he was back in the woods forever and when I called, he came looking.

Other than that, I have seen zero activity that would indicate the rut is taking place. The bucks are ready, I don't see the does being in.

(I'm hunting/guiding Kurt)

The buck I shot yesterday came into DOC's scent. Circled downwind of it and came straight in. Kept his attention long enough to thread an arrow through him.

who isn't killing bucks in PA

RE: Who in P.A.......
 

I was hunting with Rob/PA a couple weeks ago and grunted in (I have the same River Valley flute;)) a really nice 8 pointer from 100 yds away who was leaving before I grunted. It didn't have a storybook ending.....but he got to within 23 yds. before not seeing the buck making the grunts and buggering out.

I'm seeing deer without using much of anything. Just a scent drag into my stand and a couple wicks. But I don't feel that had any effect of what I've seen. The deer seemed disinterested in them.

I have yet to actually have a deer come in to my calls or scents but I have been seeing plenty of pre-rut activity over the last two weeks or so. Lots of bucks chasing does and scrape activity really picked over the last week.

Yesterday was a bust though.:(

The buck I shot on Nov. 1st was rubbing trees and made a scrape as he came through. One turn of the "can" call, and hespun aroundand came right to me.
