Get the bows out! I literally saw no bucks or rutting activity on my lease.Yesterday though,we ran the bird dogs thinking we might as well try something else. Finally some sign.Found some BIG scrapes and rubs that were not there a week ago.Maybe the rut is late in my area.Put a stand overlooking a nice rub this morning.Hopefully won't get skunked after all.I've had a feeling it was going to be an odd year for quite some time now.

I shot one small buck and did not see many other deer until Sat night when I found the motherlode on a place I had not hunted yet this year. Saw 19 in about 10 minutes but I got there too late to hunt and was only glassing from a distance. Went last night and took the Garand and was limiting myself to 100 yrds with it and of course, all the deer I saw were 150+. Maybe can get another with bow or in the late doe season. It was tough hunting for me too.
