FO SHO early rut this year! I think we are in the peak now. I haven't seen any breeding but scrapes on the trees and rubs on the ground everywhere!

Who else is seeing it?

Saw 4 bucks tonight. One borderline shooter was fired up . Rubbing, scraping, lip curling. Everything moved right at Dark .

The boys are starting to feel it but this is the same thing that goes on every year at this time. Maybe a little more active a week earlier than normal but same ole, same ole

Definitely is winding down. Big boys are done.

Hahaha Marcus.

I haven't found any scrapes a just a few small rubs on the farm I hunt. What Corey described happens every year IMO, does aren't receptive yet but bucks will be cranking their antics up no doubt!

I agree, I think lockdown started today. Things will start to heat up again in 3-4 days. Then the second rut should hit around Halloween. But peak rut was deffinetly today!
