I just witnessed a mature buck in full blown rut North of Austin. I know very well the stages of the rut but this buck's legs were black from hocks to hooves and his doe wasn't leaving his sight. I don't recall seeing mature bucks beginning this early. It IS a very densely populated deer area with the ratio jacked beyond belief but I didn't think it would happen so early. Interesting....
