Look at this weather for next week. I think once this rain moves out this weekend or next week it's going to bust loose.

Here is the week after. Rain and 63 for three days.

This Saturday to a week later Sunday I think we should all sit as long and often as we can.

No joke. Judging by weather alone it'll be the best 'rut' in years. They should b moving a bunch during the day.

Some slungers are going to fall

I completely agree. My dad and I were talking about this earlier today. He'll be in SE Ohio hunting next week. As shitty as this weather is, there's no way the bucks are up doing much seeking or chasing right now. Their hormones gotta be bottled up tight, just waiting to explode! Next week should be incredible.

I snooped around a little bit today. Very few tracks in likely crossings, scrapes hadn't been tended, all things making me believe they are not staying on their feet that much relative to the time of year. I gotta believe when this front breaks, it will be unreal. Like you fellas, I think they are probably chomping at the bit, waiting to bust loose.

Watched this buck chase a doe around the parking lot today. Its a blurry pic but he looked to be about 130ish. There was a smaller buck about 15 minutes behind with his nose to the ground. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1351648493.625063.jpg

Good luck Woody, if the walk ends at 3:30 that will be pretty tight with the time change on Sunday... should be getting dark around 5:30.
