Finally have 2 bucks walk up. Eating corn like it's their only meal of the day.

You know what else there is no rhyme or reason to? Why does rut seem to be starting so early this year?

I saw bucks chasing on Sunday. Not just the little guys, but mature bucks. My friend in Broken Arrow has videos of 4 different mature bucks chasing doe on his place this week. Then my neighbor watched a big buck breeding and bed with a doe right across the field from his house, and was able to get close enough to get a picture of the buck. The only time I’ve seen mature bucks be that careless is when they are in rut. And look at how swollen his neck is. All this considered, tell me rut hasn’t started.

I've got pics of little bucks starting to spar.

The usual older bucks aren't on camera as much lately.

Two small bucks and two bucks that need another year or a kid behind the scope this evening. None were interested in anything but eating. Two of these bucks were the same two that walked in together with each other on October 1st. Moon is bright.

Finally got one down. Probably my widest ever. Last year he was a 10 and it was always wrong place wrong time type of deal. Been trying to get the Lady on him but never showed in daylight until tonight. He’s a lot bigger in person and I wish I would’ve went after him sooner after seeing him lol. I couldn’t get my blind door open this morning so I went back to the hotel. Of course he was there in daylight this morning. So used some de icer and judo chops to get it open this afternoon. His glands were perfectly clean no smell. I did actually see some real chasing today though. 3 young ones on a doe like crazy. NW Oklahoma. View attachment 178645

Got the boy on one this year. It’s his first deer and he’s been so pumped up it’s all he’s been able to talk about since it happened.

Saw a few doe this morning in the rain. As I was about to walk to a stand this evening (later than I wanted), I got a picture from a camera a 1/4 mile away of the only pig that is a regular on the property. I went and sat at the feeder. 610 he came strolling in and my deer hunt turned into a pig hunt. Had a yearling doe come in afterwards.
