We would expect nothing less from Mr. Hoddy. I have not seen a rub yet at both of my places to hunt and generally I see a bunch.
I am taking a child hunting tomorrow PM and hope to see a bunch of deer and let this girl harvest one with her uncle.
yea its been weird for me. thought it was just the way my year was goin, but i guess im not alone. seems like some people around the state were saying the rut was on and were seeing activity, but i just thought i somehow missed it. even though ive been in the woods several times a week since oct. 1st. the very little rut activity ive seen was from a couple small bucks, but even that wasnt much. rattled a little 5 point in a couple times and he came bustin through the woods pretty hard, but the bigger buck ive seen just turned and ran off when i rattled. has the rut just still not fully kicked in or was is it just short lived and i somehow missed it?

Same here. Ive been in the woods alot lately and havent seen any action.
Had 3 does come by several times just strolling around eating grass & acorns, no bucks chasing. I had a small 5 point jump the fence and stuck his nose to the ground, zig zagging all the way, but no other bucks durning the day.
With the rains weve had the last couple weeks, I have seen where they have left lots of tracks overnight.
Watched 14 does, each had a fawn but one, wander out into a cut milo field at 5pm. From the other end of the CRP, had a group of 6 buck come out single file together. Only two of them still had both antlers, all eight points or should have been, nothing big. Walking out, almost to the truck, spotted a deer being followed by another, second one back was twice the size and twice the size, so assuming a buck following a doe, too dark out to see what he had on top.
