I had zero chasing Saturday. Two bucks hanging around together. Or. . .maybe they were gay? Not sure.

That said, last few days of Oct and first few days of Nov were wild and crazy chasing here. I suspect the second rut will be kicking in around gun season as mentioned above.

I saw two mature bucks in Jackson county last Saturday. First at 12:20 and the second at 12:40. They came from opposite directions and as usual I didn’t kill either.

it was a very slow day up till then.

Happen to hear about this one yet? Supposedly happened yesterday but I haven't confirmed that either so. I just found out about it a couple hours ago, and not far from my neck of the woods either.

Got out for a few hours this evening. A big fat ass 6 point...looked like a long horn...came full trot down the hill towards me but 50 yards out. He was on a mission. He stopped and smelled the air for 30 seconds and took off.
