Since about Early September I've had the same group of about 7 or 8 does that come out and feed in my yard just about every night. A couple nights ago a small buck joined them bumping them around. And the next two nights had two different smaller bucks bumping them around. When the rut starts...
was deciding on whether to start hunting this weekend or next. As I am typing this there are 7 does out in my yard being chased around by a young 8 point. Made my decision pretty easy.
I have not had any mature bucks show them selves during light yet. My last pull did show many younger bucks in daylight. It is about to heat up big time in a week or so! can not wait!
One night I got out of the stand well after sunset and had to walk across a big cut bean field to get to my truck. Spooked a few deer...they ran down over a hill so I kept walking. Moments later here they come back over the hill right at me! This time a nice buck was behind them (could see his...

I checked one of my cameras last night and had two 3.5 yr olds sparring pretty good. I still think its about 15 days or so before you can represent a major buck fight. Tickling them together though can't hurt!
I live 30 minutes south of Wapello and hunting around this area is awesome! Lots of deer. If you're offered to hunt, making the trip would be well worth it! I've heard of very big bucks seen/harvested up around there in the past couple years.
Hey everyone, just been thinking about all the times I have had to spook deer out of my evening fields when it gets dark due to climbing out of my stand. Didn't know if any of you had any secrets you use to not spook the deer as much!
