Had a decent 8-point dogging two does around 9am yesterday. He made a scrape and ignored my bleat/grunts. An hour later, he was following a different doe through, still out of range. Had a 5 point come by around 5pm last night all by himself.

Hunted Major county over the weekend. All does were together and the bucks were too. All camera shots from the last week still had bachelor groups after dark and does during day. VERY LIMITED scrape and rub activity in the areas I hunted (from my viewpoint).

Had one scrape on a food plot and watch multiple does come on the plot and not one checked it out.

My daughter and I watched 38 does and fawns pile out into a milo field this evening. Finally spotted a tall eight point all by his lonesome, make his way from a tree row almost a half mile a way across a powdery wheat field to come checkout the does. Had him at just over 100y but never really presented her a good shot.

They will be in groups of well over 100 during late December and January. This is open country too, although these tonight were never more than 300y away, except for the buck when he entered the field. Some stands we can see for over a mile.
