Post your observations of rutting behavior here.
I'm starting to see young dead bucks on the side of the roads the past few days. Starting to move more at night I'm guessing. Guy up the road shot a good 13 pointer and he was pissing down his leg looking at does in the beans. Thinking Sunday might be a good day to hunt with the 10 deg cold front predicted.

Lots of scrapes, rubs in Iowa, but I was seeing most bucks together still. One nicer buck was posturing to another 2.5 year old in the clover.

Light sparring in my area and I've watched young bucks chase does around two different food plots. I also have a nice 3.5year old running after a doe on one of my trail cams. Or it appears that what anyways. I've seen just two scrapes, but one of them is massive

Sunday night I had an older buck (probably 3.5) grunting and chasing a doe. Nice cold front that night. My dad has heard little ones grunting and sparring.

Wednesday looks like the best day in that forecast.

Wednesday looks like the best day in that forecast. I can handle a little rain. I like the temp drop cold front from Monday. Wed should be good too though. |

The last couple of nights driving to work I've seen several bucks chasing. Heading out this afternoon if I get out of the doctors office on time. Plan to sit tomorrow, Fri. & Sat. It's nice having a 3 day weekend. Not that it really matters that much since I work nights, but I spend a lot more time in the stand on days I don't have to go to work that night.

Day after the front moves through, pressure should be on the rise. Those are typically good days. This past weekend. Everything blew through on Sunday. Sunday night was good and monday night was too. Monday was a bluebird day.
Little rain never hurt, I've got plenty pics of deer feeding in the rain, although mainly in the dark.
