Pa. guys any sign of the magic time yet?(rut)
Although I myself have not seen any in the woods I have seen some chasing along the edges of woods while driving to and from my hunting spots.

Well, I saw a couple of new scrapes today that weren't there 2 days ago.I'll be hunting all day, every daythis entire week, and the following.;)

A few days ago I had a nice buck come by chasing 3 does but that was about it. Hopefully real soon it will get real good. Good luck to you.

I watched a decent buck (2.5) scent checking every doe in a soybean field Thurs. as I walked out. On Fri., I had another 8 pt. chase three does past my set up at about 4pm. The buck was about 16" inside and also looked to be a 2.5, but stayed out approx. 40 yards in some waist high scrub. Both seemed to be real interested in what those does had going on.

If you guys are having the same weather patterns as us in Northern Virginia, I predict by Thursday and Friday that the deer movement will pick up bigtime. Rising barometer, clear/sunny skies after a cold front/winds push the overnight lows down by 15-20 degrees. Deer will move on Thursday and Friday of this week and I will be waiting.

Is seeing scrape lines with scrapes every 30-40 yards count? lol

My vote is this time next week the bucks will starttakinginventory of the does.

Hope your right about the bucks start looking for doe's but i hope it doesn't start till the weekend because i can't hunt Thursday or Friday evenings.

Nothing here other than scrapes that are popping up which is no indication of the rut. Bucks scrape, it's what they do. Does control the rut. I've seen no sign of does tarsals darkening yet. I have heard of people saying small bucks are scent checking but they are rookies. The big boys are not on their feet looking so it's still a matter of time.
