    Are the first does in estrus and maybe have the bucks locked down a bit?

    I'm on 4, 5 if you discount the tail glimpse on opening weekend. It's getting rather old, twice I have been on the ground, once trailing a turkey and yesterday looking for a place to hang a stand for the rut and walked up on a group of does.

    They're out there, just not sure what is going on. This is by far my worst start, normally if I haven't shot any th ing I've at least had some sightings.

    At night, so I know they are out there.

    I saw my first big buck ever tonite. He didn't come in range unfortunately, but I saw him three different times. I'll be after him in the morning for sure.

    Had a 6 and a 4pt come out at 60 yards and started sparring. Got serious for a while. Could have jumped on top of a doe.

    At least I'm seeing deer.

    MnHunter, where are you at? I am assuming by your name that you are in Minnesota. I'm down just South of Austin. Not too far from the border.

    I'm in central MN near St. Cloud. Doesn't sound like you're seeing much? I've seen deer every time I've been out... Just not the shooters I'm lookin for.

    At the lease, running just a little behind. Gotta change and get the pack ready and I'll be heading into the woods. Should hopefully be fully set up by six, shooting light is 603...

    Last night the same good buck came out right at last light but too far for Justin to shoot. We are set up an hour before shooting light hoping he makes an appearance again this morning. I did see my first bobcat last night which was pretty cool.
