Rut appears to be done in my area anyway. Starting Wednesday the does started grouping up again and feeding in daylight, the bucks are feeding near each other without any fighting. Only heard two shots this morning myself. Neighbor shot two coyotes.
Sat in the stand all day. Zero activity until an hour before the last shooting time. Ended up with 18 does and 3 bucks in the milo field I'm sitting over. The bucks were dinks, but they weren't chasing does.
Thing is, we saw no real rutting activity until Wednesday morning. If rut is over here, that is the shortest rut I’ve ever seen. I’m thinking it’s like Okie said....a lot locked down today. Hoping that means they will be cruising in the morning.
