Welcome to the site. The rut is on the edge of busting loose I think. These cold mornings are helping a bit. I'm just waiting for that switch to flip on.

The rut has already busted loose here for the past week. Bucks chasing does, bucks bedded with does, bucks fighting & all the does are bedding in strange places hiding from the bucks. Now is the time before the bucks start hanging with individual does and stop all the chasing. I heard more vocalization from the deer mon,tues, and wed than I have heard my entire hunting career. With out a doubt the rut is here in full swing.

Think it's been on for about a week & a half, at least where I hunt. The rut is more pronounced when there is a more balanced buck to doe ratio. If there are too many doe in an area, as compared to bucks, they don't have to go crazy looking for them becuase they are so easy to find.

Thanks for the welcome!! Spent yesterday afternoon in a tree did not see anything but long tailed rats, but beautiful afternoon. I hunt woods mostly no field edges on my spot just transitional area with nice bottom with a creek flowing thru it. I have seen deer there in the past chasing mid-afternoon, bagged an 8 and a 5 in years past landowner wants does taken off so this year I am meat hunting.
