Lots of does and buck sign. Haven't found the one yet. I would trade 100 does for a good buck, probably seen that many does too

The rut is on here in SK for sure. Been concentrating on filling my draw Mule Deer and Moose tags, which I both filled with a nice 180-190 inch Mule and a 49 inch Bull. Rifle season opens tomorrow and I have the week off work, time to concentrate on my white tail tag

Today at 8:20 my target buck hockey puck was laid to rest but not by myself, heard the shot ring out south of me in the cut block I walk trough in pursuit of him walked out at 1030 and a young huntress maybe 12-14 folded her tag on him. What a incredible animal he was very happy for her

I rattled in 2 1.5 year old bucks on my property in 250 last Sunday and I saw an additional 4 does. These are the first 2 bucks I've seen during the day on the property since August. Everything has been extremely nocturnal, but very active. I have 9 bucks of various ages up to 4.5 (probably) on camera over the last 8 weeks but every one of them have been taken at night. I'm hoping this changes this weekend or I'm going in after them!

Rattled in a nice buck and proceeded to give him a haircut, no blood so I'm happy I didn't wound him.
I'll be back out tomorrow.

A little off the top? Or off the bottom
Dam, that sucks but like you mentioned not wounded...he'll be back...rut makes them forget real quick...kinda like having a black eye and sitting at the bar and another gal gives you the look while holding her boyfriends hand

A sure sign that the peak of the rut is Right Now!
Been rattling in bucks every day for the last couple of weeks, until a couple of days ago. The girls are playing nice now and the boys are gettin' some.
Know where there girls bedroom is and hang out just outside the door.
Called in this one twice last week, he was stuck with a doe tonight.
Knew he was around but couldn't get his attention.
Sat on the exit and buddy put him down at last light.

You should get out of the fart sack and ready your rifle
Unless your sleeping in and those bucks are just inconsiderate making such a commotion.
