Think its bout to start,yesterday saw a spike trailin a doe and 2 fawns,gruntin all the way,last nite saw a fawn tryin to ride another........ :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Bad news,we got freezin rain chances thru WED.
hey Kenny! the 2nd or 'late' rut is happening here now. saw an 8 pointer going after the small doe that were born in the early spring on Thursday evening and again yesterday evening. glad to report that as of yesterday evening I am tagged out and he is no longer chasing those young doe. nothing like bow hunting in the snow and even better, getting a buck with a stickbow AFTER the gun season.
best afield
if the 2nd rut is happening now, i would argue that the 1st rut doesn't really end! Ever since a week before rifle season (here in MO), i've been seeing rutting activity. Cruising bucks, bucks following does/chasing does. I picked up the bow again after rifle season and have contunued to see activity! MDC is pretty humorous!
Pics and story to follow, Right Danny??????????
hey Kenny! I will try to get a pic or two up later.
Yeah Jeremy,the first go-round was kinda dragged out here too,but I think activity is pickin up!! :thumbsup:
Congrats Danny :thumbsup: :thumbsup: and WHERE ARE THE PICS?
I just came back in from running the hound. I saw lots of sign and some new rubs that were not there before.No scrapes. Will be out in the :( cold rain tomorrow..
Didn't see anything through the fog here this morning but I will go back out again tomorrow and give it another whirl. Hopefully the wind is right to set my good stand.
Went and visited my dad and onthe way out about 4:18 here 3 bucks chasing a doe fawn around. She was petrified, but they were persistent. Here we go!! Shawn
