    I have yet to go. Been to warm or wind wasn't right for my stands. Butttt, from what i hear there are some little bucks chasing. Ive also heard 2 180+" deer have dropped in the last week.

    Disclaimer I hunt public land.

    I have had 2 sits so far and the last was Thursday the 29th. 1 hour before dark I saw 3 does in a field and a young buck about 50 yards away not giving them the time of day. It has been pretty warm though so maybe they wait till its cooler at night to cover some ground and get busy.

    I plan on going out tomorrow before work (first morning sit) hope the rut is on and running.
    **EDIT nvm my next time out will be Saturday evening**
