Yeah I know where that is. Talked to someone else in the bartlett area that was seeing some. Did you have any rutting activities before today?

I talked to an ODOT worker out of Bartlett this evening. He said the pulled 14 deer off the roads in the last week, 11 bucks. Sounds like they are starting to move pretty good. I'm planning on being strapped to a tree all day Friday.

very little through the day time I would see plenty of new scrapes and rubs that were made the night before when I was going in in the mornings I saw deer all daylong today some were hot on does others was just cruising with their nose to the ground they was still at it even in the pouring rain this evening

We saw bucks, but all younger, and none with a nose to the ground, and all does were by themselves.. Good luck guys.. I got about 9 days until I will be back down there.

If you're out today let us know how the wind is effecting movement.

Dad is out right now. Has seen the normal 5pt feeding thru. Had a big doe around him for around 15 minutes. Feeding slowly, nothing following, acting normal.

So far nuthin. Moundy text me earlier and said he had a nice un at 15 yds

 

[cotty16]

My neighbor just arrowed a nice 10 cruising. I'll post a pic later when he sends me one.

Finally saw a shooter at 745. He wasnt rutted up at all. Moving real slow. 70 yards out. No shot but its encouraging that he was on his feet. Grunt call didnt phase him.

I havent seen any does in a couple days. I need to find them biotches.

Solid 9 point broadside at 15 yards..bigger than the buck i shot, of course..oh well though thats part of it. I can say that rut is on though. Give it a few days before it peaks though
