What times are people seeing deer activity?
6:30, 7:40, 8:20 seem to be the hot morning times for me, but I don't stay much past 8 this early.
4:40 on to sunset for the evenings still.
Anyone seeing good deer movement between 9 and 4 yet?

I will be heading up on the same day for 7 days of hunting. We may pass each other on the road. You guys just about have to come by me to get there from Mississippi. Hope y'all have a good hunt!

I'm hunting in cumberland county. Last week had a nice 10 point in cut corn field about 75 yards from me. Tried primos doe bleat and he pretty much ignored it. But that same night my nephew saw a huge 13 pt with drop tine and he responded to the doe bleat. Think its kinda hit or miss right now. On another one of our properties, I was just scouting around there last sunday and saw 8 scrapes. Think the old testosterone is firing up in them bucks.

Great info Guy's. The doe bleat tip helped my hunting partner bring in a 15pt non-typical buck last night that he tool at 10 yds broadside. It came to his doe bleats from over 150 yds. When I get pics I'll post em.

crazy day in the stand today.....
wind was howling and it was horribly in my face, not a whole lot was going on besides seeing a spike chasing a doe for about an hour....then everything went nuts
first i saw two bucks, one decent 8 and a real small 6 point we running together about 300 yards away, but i only got a small peek of them....then my dad came over the radio within a couple minutes saying that a small 6 pointer was chasing 5 does....and then i saw two other bucks chug by my stand, and then about after only like 15 minutes of nothing, 4 does run by being chased by a small half rack......the deer were seriously RUNNING today....it was a neat thing to see.....my dad saw 20 deer today, and I saw 15.....only one deer was i thinking of taking....it was that decent 8 pointer, but i couldnt get a shot off cause they were moving so fast.....no calling, no nothing, because of the wind....but we did have some estrus urine and mucus out....but they never came by slow enough to care about it....very exciting day.
