Here in the big city of Columbus, I saw a young buck with his head to the ground chasing 2 doe all over the place last night.

A friend killed a giant on opening day that was chasing a doe. South central part of the state. I recently found an excessive amount of scrapes and rubs in Ross County. Sunday is going to be epic if the weather is as predicted.

Lots of scrapes and a little bumping going on here. Mostly little ones but I've seen a couple good ones acting dumb to. Coopers buck got real aggressive the other night when I grunted at him.
Little ones chasing does around in northern Columbiana county.
Still first light and last light movement in Carrol county.

Peaked by me already.

Been a normal progression for us in Washington County over the past 10 days. Little bucks started it, decent bucks followed, but still waiting on the mature bucks. I did get a pic 5 minutes ago of a solid buck moving late morning by a scrape. That's a good sign!

Mason watched a big 8 tending a doe all evening. I’m pretty sure all of my usual cam visiting bucks are hanging around the first hot doe of the year where I’ve been hunting. I haven’t had a picture or seen any of them for two days. I need to find out where the serious romance is taking place.
Wife and son killed a small buck on 33 yesterday. They’re definitely looking for love…

Had a 6 pt chase a doe for nearly 15 minutes yesterday morning in Carroll County. A few scrapes are starting to show up here and there.
Sat in the driveway last night later than I should've. Had a scrub buck on cam darting around. He destroyed the woods for a couple of hours. Big long grunts. It was fun to listen to him while BSing with friends. He didn't have a care in the world we were talking and laughing 40 yards away. Highland county
