RE: SOUTH EAST MINNESOTA
I went scouting this past weekend and sawlots big rubs and scraps. I scouted near corn and CRP fields. By the way things look, it's very promising. I went to another one of my favorite hunting area and busted a nice 8 point. I hope he comes back when gun season starts. Things should pick up more when season starts.

thanks for the info wolf,
where abouts in minnesota do you hunt? ya i think we should have a good chance that the rut might be in full swing during first weekend. i hope it stays cold though, but knowing my luck it will probably warm up the friday before deer hunting. im not a hundred percent foresure but one year about 3 years ago it got real cold the night before deer hunting and when we woke up on saturday it was only 9 above. that morning we shot one six pointer, one eight pointer and one twelve. all within about one hour of each other and all within 300 yards of each other. i think the cold makes em move, but i could be wrong. |

I was down by caledonia this weekend. Saw two different 8 pointers with in 50 yards of each other making scrapes and rubs. Saw the same 8 pointer two nights in a row and shot him last night. Both bucks were chasing does with there noses to the ground. Heard one fight in the woods about 100 yards from me just couldn't see them becuase it's so thick where I hunt. My buddy also shot his first deer this weekend wich was a 6 pointer with a huge body on him. He was also chasing a doe when my buddy shot him. I would say it should be a very good gun opener if the weather cooperates!!!!!!!!!

I was hunting this past saturday in West central MN and saw a bunch of scrapes on my property. They were literally 20-30 feet apart along the edge of the woods. Licking branches were tore up pretty bad too. The same evening I grunted in an basket 8 point but let him go. Good luck to you all on firearm opener this weekend.
