I'm just curious what everyone thought of the rut this Fall. Maybe we can get a jump on this discussion before the hunting mags. come out with their "official report".
As for me it was the best I've seen in a while. More seeking, chasing and fighting than I think I've ever seen. Sounds like everyone saw more midday movement. I had the best success ever with the rattling horns and we actually shot some 2 1/2 yr. old bucks in shotgun season that weren't all swollen up from the rut. I'm thinking they may have stood on the sidelines & watched the bigger boys. Maybe thinning the doe herd is helping already? What's your take? Maggs
