I'm working today, but my good buddy Carl killed a great buck near Marion . Saw it feeding and grunted it in and put a great shot . I'm quickly running out of friends to get reports from as most have tagged bucks .

With this weather coming on friday/saturday hopefully its gets going a little harder. 2 nights ago: 2 button bucks chases 3 does in (maybe moms?) grunting away, was actually funny to hear them. Any updates anyone? Headed out tongiht/ tomorrow.

Scrapes and rubs popping up daily. Small bucks cruising. In the next week the flood gates are going to open with crazy activity I suspect. Allen County.

Saturday Nov 7th the switch will turn to: "ON".

I'm with buckmaster on the flip of the switch Saturday and Sunday. Coming off a warm temp of mid 60's and rain all day Friday to high of 48 and 8-10 mph winds and no rain Saturday Sunday should have them up and rolling here.

Here as in Geauga, Lake, Ashtabula county.

Watched a buck chasing several does around checking and he ended up pinning one down. Then it ended up in a flurry of activity when other deer showed up.

I'd say she was hot.

Been hunting Lawrence co near Ironton , no movement at all last several days , very warm , windy , some rain showers .. Had a couple daylight pics show up of a few bucks. Sign is limited seems like not as much as in years past .. Most deer are concentrated near green fields this year.. Have had a Bear come in on me while in stand though but no bucks yet ..
