Just wondering what everyone's seeing? I've rattled in a few small one's but havent seen
any mature deer cruising yet? Any rut report?
Been working everyday Tripper so I can't tell You any good news. I haven't seen many deer this week off the road.
I'm taking next week off hope I time it right.
Good luck if You make it out.

Not yet.... :pray: I'm heading out on the 15th. Last year we hunted the 1st week of November and it was pretty quiet. Hopefully we called it right going a week later... :dunno:
My vacation starts tomorrow and there is supposed to be a cold front coming in on Sunday so hopefully it will kick off!!
seen a little buck pushing some does around last thursday morning but he wasnt real serious about it. havent really heard much in the way of full blown out chasing.
Had small bucks come out early tonite in one corner. In the opposite corner had does out last hour of shooting hours.
Mostly does and small bucks moving. Sunday morning did have a decent 8 and spike both following a doe but wouldn't say chasin'. Heading out Saturday to deer camp for a week. With a little weather moving in maybe that will kickstart the action.
I've seen three different bucks chasing does. The first two were on Sunday the 28th and the latest one was Monday the 5th.
Sorry to say Tim but I've seen a few mature bucks chasing and cruising. I still think you'll be here at the peak though!
Its on here I have big buck cruising and not running hard but close 2 days till a week of vacation for great deer hunting with good friends
I'm still not seeing anything close to the rut. Does are still with the fawns and just small bucks. Did see one average buck following a doe with twins and when he got within 50 yards they took off and he did not pursue. Only found one set of scrapes and they are just dust. I think it will be within the next week.
I just came off nights today and checked a few cams, several new bigger bucks and lots of new scrapes. This scrape had 6 different bucks hit it including this guy.

Tracy,
those are some dandys!!!! This warm weather we are supposed to have the rest of this week is killing me!!!!
My brother and I are headed up to Greenwood county tomorrow, set up day on Saturday, supposed to rain and temperature drop on Sunday. Look out Monday, cold and clear, looks like an all day sit. By all rights next week should be game on...RW
Wow, great deer!!!
Good luck
I am heading to Kansas tomorrow after work to hunt until the 10th. I hope I hit it right. Just bought a new truck for the trip.
I'd say in a week would be perfect !
I've seen no chasing yet, besides the little ones but they don't count. I watched 3 really nice bucks working scrapes last weekend. I'd say you should be golden.
It aint kansas but here in eastern CO they're just starting to cruise. I saw a big ole doe i've watched all year long and she's seperated from her two fawns now.... you know what that means :)
My KS hunt starts tomorrow afternoon through next Saturday..hopefully things will be kickin' by then!! Good luck everyone!!!
Anybody been seeing any chasing or mature deer cruising?
They were moving good Last Sunday thru Weds. Think they're in lock down now though.
Not much happening in on our farm. I've seen a couple of bucks, nothing big, and a doe. The wind has been blowing like crazy, and probably going to get worse today and tomorrow.
Just got back from KS. Rut was wide open where I was. Big boys were locked down with does most of the time. Did see alot of younger bucks cruising. Not many does by theirself.
