This weekend saw temps in the 80s again. At the lease we saw several bucks chasing does. My BIL killed a nice,(130), 9 point Sunday morning. He is done, both buck tags filled. I saw a nice 8 with his nose to the ground Saturday AM. He was never closer than 70 yds. Sunday AM I saw a basket 6 running a doe just grunting away. Man it was a sight to see. All the activity died off by 8:30-9:00 when temps started climbing. Today I came to work rather than use a vacation day. The temp at 4:45 this AM when I left for work was 72 degrees with a high expected to be 84. This is almost 20 over the average for this time of year. It sucks. Temps are not forcast to drop out of the 70s-80s for at least a week. Most rut activity will be nocturnal AGAIN this year it appears. This SUX!

I couldn't agree with you more Greg. This weather does suck. I was down at the lease this weekend as well. The buck I shot (with a gun) came in when I was rattling. Saw a few chasing doe and starting to rut pretty good. I KNOW it would be a lot better if we had some cold weather. These temps just aren't cutting it.

Greg.

Dont worry about it mate.

Next week end is gonna be butt ass cold with freezing rain, sleet and snow squals.

How do I know this?

It's easy Bob and I are heading to Barksdale for the Axis hunt ( my only deer hunt this year) so the weather is gonna change just to screwme over

80s this time of year is not normal. Average high temps for November are 60s. However for the past 3 years temps have been in the 80s during the rut. I believe global warming is real.
