Are deer rutting around Fairfield yet?

[LA Dave]

Yes!

Very nice 12. What did it score? Looks mature. Any details?

[LA Dave]

It's actually a 13. Waiting on score but has been estimated @ 145, taken Monday, 4.5 yrs old. Rut is on big time.

Thats awesome. Sorry on the miscount. Thats a great deer. Congrats. My dad arrowed a 22" wide heavy 8 last Saturday, but no luck finding him. We think it might have been a high hit and hoping he is still alive. We searched for a long time and even got a tracking dog. We hunt right on the lake close to the mine.

[LA Dave]

Spread was 17", we hunt closer to 45.

Anyone else got any encouraging news? It's sounding good

We have had smaller bucks chasing doe but not big ones.

Only saw one deer, an 8 pointer this weekend and he was not obviously chasing anything...maybe next weekend hopefully

[txhunter817]

Still just small bucks chasing. Hopefully the big bucks come out soon.

I've been hunting since Saturday with no signs of improvement. I'm hunting until Sunday morning so I hope it picks up soon. Still just small bucks chasing.
