WHATS THE ACTIVITY IN OHIO??
 

Had this post in the midwest forum, would like to start an activity chart for us "OHIOAN BUCKEYES" we are ranked like 8th in the top 10 states to score a record buck, and would like to see what is going on with everyone who hunts ohio. I hunt highland and brown county, but the activity has been minimal, sunday was a good day seen 5 deer, but i should have seen like a hundred already. Please post your activity on what you see, and how your season is going thus far, thanks. Mike

Up near mount vernon, I have been watching a few bucks chasing does this week around a 5 acre trefoil field. I am just speculating that they have started chasing some since in 2 days this week I have seen 3 times as many deer, mostly bucks, hit on the roads around millersburg and mount vernon

Well i know the rut is getting underway in highland county, my uncle had some trees planted and a buck had rubbed and broke them in half, and we found two scrapes along the wood line of the clover field. I havent seen any rubs or scrapes yet in brown county. What other counties do we have hunting??

Just west of you Turkey Fan, in Clermont County. Activity has been real slow around here as well. We actually have a nuissance permit with 10 tags on our farm because of crop damage. It's usually nothing to see 15 to 20 deer in a day but I think the most we've seen so far this season is 3 or 4.

However, I have been seeing a few small bucks moving around lately & I've spotted several fresh scrapes showing up so hopefully it's just around the corner.

I hunt in Tuscarawas County and have seen a lot of deer. I have already killed one deer that was a doe and, my dad has killed two does. The most deer I have seen in one day out hunting is 14! My dad and I have our eye on a couple bucks that rome our property. He has his eye on a non-typical that will score a whole lot of points. I can't tell you how much because we have not seen him yet this year. Last year he scored over 200 points!!! It's hard to believe but it's true. Ohio bucks can get really big. I filmed this buck last year and he was a typical that would score in between 170-190 (Give or take)
We are looking forward to the full rut and we have already seen several bucks. Best of luck to all Ohio hunters and to every other hunter!! Have a good, fun, safe season. I will keep you all updated on the deer my dad and I shoot!!!!:D

went out on sunday, (halloween), in highland county, and seen 15 does, none of course close enough for a good shot![:@] My uncle seen a wide 8pt coming right at him till a doe swept him away. So sunday was the best day i had so far, found some scrapes and a few rubs. Weather is starting to get chilly this week, like in the 30's. How was everyone esles weekend in the woods.?

Here in perry county, Near Perry state Forest, we are doing good. We have been seeing rubbs on our hunting grounds since the 1st week of october. My hubbyand one of his friends got a couple of nice 8 pts. We've been seeing a good bit of nice shoters and smaller bucks here. And a good bit of does.

RE: WHATS THE ACTIVITY IN OHIO??
 

I hunt in Clermont County, and saw 3 bucks yesterday. One made 2 scrapes 10 yards from my stand and rubbed, actually destroyed, a bush. The 2 smaller ones sparred a little bit, and were pushed right by my stand by a bigger buck (still too small to shoot). Still an awesome day!!! This week and next week should be really nice. The weather is going to get pretty cold, so it should be a fantastic rut!!!!:D:D

oh god i pray it is!!!!!!!! I cant wait.

RE: WHATS THE ACTIVITY IN OHIO??
 

Been seeing lots of does and button bucks but with the full moon and wind and rain. The bucks haven't been moving. Cool temps for this weekend should heat things up.

RE: WHATS THE ACTIVITY IN OHIO??
 

Been see deer every weekend just cant seem to get anything going for me. Saw a doe being chased by a nice 4 pt. I was at full draw on a 7pt he came about 8 yards from me but couldnt get a clean shot.

RE: WHATS THE ACTIVITY IN OHIO??
 

I have seen more big bucks in the past 4 days than the rest of the year it is really startin to crank here in central ohio

RE: WHATS THE ACTIVITY IN OHIO??
 

I think this year has had a slow start but the past three of four days I have seen lots of new activity. I have a farm in Adams county and they're moving pretty good now. I guess it's time for the spotlighters to come out now. The poaching in Adams county is unbelievable.

RE: WHATS THE ACTIVITY IN OHIO??
 

Yea they just busted some boys from florida poaching where i hunt nearby!! I feel the cold setting in and i cant wait.
