    Every year I take a week off work and go back home bowhunting with my dad in union county (the tail of SD). I will be down there from November 2nd to the 11th. What do you guys think will they be in peak rut? They had a bad die off from blue tongue so im just hoping for the best.

    I was just on stand this morning and watched a young buck follow a doe and I could here some grunting. No serious chasing yet and fawns are still with mom. Did alot of scouting and only found a couple scrapes and some rubs. I have 10 days off starting on the 9th, can't wait!
