Bucks chasing Does already in SGA
« on: October 23, 2011, 11:34:40 AM »
Just to let you guys know the bucks are already running does in SGA.  I shot a screwed up rack deer chasing and grunting after a doe yesterday afternoon and saw 2 different sets of bucks/does in the ditches while driving from my dads to my house which is about an hours drive.  I know it's way early for the rut, but at least there is movement.  Good Luck folks.

We got's to buy these deer a calendar.  When the hunt regs. calendar gives a date, the deer need to comply.  How am I going to schedule a vacation during the rut if the deer don't know?

I've only seen some half hearted scrapes.  Nothing to indicate the bucks are running the does. 
 
'course, If GON is to be believed there are several different rut time frames in So. Jawja.  I think Bacon County is close to the border of two.  Who knows.  I thought this cold wx would have some effect but it just made me... cold!
