Lockdown!!!!!

I saw a dozen deer yesterday morning. 11 does basically trying to hide from bucks. But the buck I killed was locked down with a doe. I had seen him with her the night before. They crossed the road and he had her holed up in a fencerow in standing corn.

I had a 6 pt walk by at 3:15, 8pt at 3:35pm and a 4pt walk by at 5:15. They're still moving! The 6 and 8 wouldn't stop for no reason - we know what they're thinking!!

I'm gonna say we're not in lockdown yet either. I just went and checked my cameras and I have a fair amount of pics/videos of different bucks and
does separate from each other. Granted I only have 2 good bucks (the 10 I've been watching all year and a new guy which is a another BIG 10) and all the others are smaller bucks. But several does eating corn without bucks in frame. Seems like this cold snap really got them on their feet. Hopefully something good happens soon, would really like to tag a buck before the orange army hits town!

I just spent 8 days in the Ross Co woods. Scraping activity just started booming there the 11th with Bucks seeking. They were just starting to chase when I left Sat. Rut seemed to be slightly later than I would have thought. Unfortunately I think they'll be locked down for the kids during the youth season this coming weekend.
