Bumped a buck and doe bedded under my stand on the walk in. All I seen was a frame but looked decent. Sat till dark, 2 does with fawn and lone confused button buck. West central Iowa

Couple small bucks chasing this morning

A bust for me

6 does feeding behind the house tonight, no bucks around

They bumped it up a little but I'll take it. This is western Iowa

I've never rattled in a mature deer. Plenty of young ones but never mature. Maybe I need a bigger set of rattlers.

Extended forecast is showing highs in the mid 30s starting November 5th. If that holds true it may be the best rut in years.

Lol, I have a buddy that was hunting muzzy season with his dad 10-15 years ago and his dad shot a buck and dropped it in its tracks. They walked up to it and while looking it over noticed it was still breathing but figured it was on its last breath. They set their stuff down, tagged it and...

No doe tags where I hunt - I'm going to have to hold out for a 200" to make up for it

i about smacked a two year old buck following a doe with the car this morning. With the big cold front this Friday

Patience and staying calm in the moment. Years ago I had a nice 10 within range for 15 minutes but not offering a shot. I had hundreds of trail cam pics of this deer and had seen him 5 times that year but never in bow range. My knees were uncontrollably shaking standing there and he looked up...

Harvest is running behind in my area due to rain, may be worth considering later dates if crops concern you. Year in year out first week of November for me. No matter moon phase, pressure, temps etc....

I've never seen a negative reaction from mature bucks. Products work great for inventory but you can't count on bucks changing their patterns (to daylight activity) trying to be the dominant buck in the area like most advertise. Buy one of the above mentioned products, stir up some dirt along a...

For mocks I use active scrape by wildlife research but when utilizing a natural scrape I don't use anything.

I'm in the northern parts of zone 4. I would get a list of public property in the zone you plan to hunt and start looking over google earth. Personally I wouldn't even mess with the big timber area. I would find small public areas with creek lines that connect to private timber or have private...

Scrapes opened up a couple weeks ago around here. Scrape cams are rolling.
