The Rut Is On

The guy in this picture is one of five bucks that came to the bed today. All were pretty much oblivious to my presence except one that got down wind and then proceeded to tell the whole woods that trouble was near. Warm wet weather has made it difficult to be undetected. Several fawns came by alone- another sign that the rut is happening. Good luck! This won't last forever!

The Moon

We have a full moon tonight (October 26). Should notice more activity in and out of the woods early in the mornings and late evenings. There would be even more movement were it not for the warm weather and still a lot of corn left to harvest. But with this weather, the corn will be gone soon.

The full moon tonight means the dark of the moon comes just before veterans day. Perfect timing if we can get cooler, quiet days to go with it. Good hunting.

This guy was tearing a tree apart in my favorite bed a year ago about Nov. 7.

Time

Combines are rolling, leaves are turning, time to get ready for the most exciting event of a bowhunter's year. Shooting lanes need pruning, improving stand locations if necessary. Maybe its time to look for another hunting spot. And its always time to be working on scent control and shooting accuracy. Wishing you good hunting.
