I hope so, up north after just being there I was worried! I guess it does some like a switch gets turned on and in no time the rut is in high gear. With the weather continuing to be cold I think I will be alright being there 4-12. But usually around this time scrapes are coming into full force, I hope it gets going soon.
I was out this weekend and saw only 2 does, after sitting I decided to do searching and found a few rubs and scrapes. I decided to make a mock scrape, and by the next morning it was hit hard.
Well, I finished up my hunt this weekend with a big fat zero as far as bringing any down. I did see a nice big bodied buck, but the booger stayed just inside the tree line and made very sure that there was enough brush and trees between me and him, where I didnt get a shot at him. I could tell he had horns, but he was too conealed for me to see how big a rack he had. My son on the other hand got to see and take a shot at his first buck, and undershot so no venison there either. I'll be spending the rest of my season hunting out in Burlington, on a friends property. So the season isnt completely done for me yet...
small bucks have their noses to the ground. seeking but not chasing yet. nest weekend should be excellent
It has been a very diffcult year been getting out when I can .Between work and thing's going wrong at home . I hunt Lincoln County and so far not many deer sighting's . I think I have about 8-10 deer in my area by what I seen on my camera's some bucks but no shooters to date .Deer have been real nervous that I did see . I hunt from ladder stand's and throwing that around in my mind that the deer know when something isn't right going to try some different avenue's see if that work's . Very Perplexed. Good Luck and hunt safe. Jenning's T Star II Gold Tip Arrow's Muzzy 3 Blade 100 grain Broadhead Cobra Release
I was recently on a public land archery hunt in western South Dakota. I ran into two different groups of Wisconsin guys for a total of nine hunters. Were any of you recently in Bonesteel, SD chasing deer? Both groups I talked to were pretty frustrated with the hunting. On a side note, I ran into zero South Dakota hunters that weekend. What's up with you fellas heading all the way over here?
Heading down to the farm in Buffalo Co Saturday for a quick evening sit. Then back down next Tuesday - Sunday. From what I've heard it should be good. Good luck to everyone getting out this weekend. This is the best time of year.
I will be out bowhunting for the first time in 2 years Nov. 1, 2, 3 in peshtigo, WI. I can't wait. Was up several weeks ago getting the path to my stand cleared out and clearing the overgrowth in my lanes. Saw lots of tracks and droppings. Hoping for a good weekend
It's that time of the year again... This guy hit the ground Monday Morning at my Uncles land in Buffalo County and he shot this one last night night I'll be hunting Friday night thru. Monday night so hopefully I can get revenge on the 10 I missed on Saturday!
Just spoke to the owner of the land we hunt in Green County. He has several new bucks on cam and plenty of does. Going to hit hit hard on Saturday.
Another one hit the dirt this morning at my uncles! That's 3 deer in 4 days! Neighbor also said things are heating up where we hunt! If I still have a tag left after Monday night I think I could take a day or two off next week as finals are over.
