Deer Movement in Callahan County?

I hunted a ranch between Cross Plains and Baird this weekend. A couple of guys who hunted Thursday and Friday said there was a lot of chasing going on - good buck movement - but the does did not seem interested yet. By the time I got there Saturday afternoon it was very warm and windy so things slowed down quite a bit. I bet things will be hoppin' in that neck of the woods Thanksgiving weekend.

I drove down 36 Saturday afternoon from 4:00 to 4:30, and there were deer EVERYWHERE between Hwy. 36 Church of Christ south of Abilene to the Pecan Bayou crossing west of Cross Plains. One big nice and very tall 8-point was running along trying to beat me across the highway at one point. I passed him just before he got to a big tree on the fence. He jumped the fence out into the highway just as an oncoming car topped the hill. They hit him, but it must have been a glancing blow somehow. He was spinning down the middle of the highway like a breakdancer. When he quit spinning, he stood up and walked on across the highway.
I saw several others chasing in the pastures and wheat fields. Don't know if the does agree that it's time for the rut, but the bucks are definitely thinking IT'S TIME.
