    Rut in East Texas

    Rut activity in East Texas, I haven't seen anything yet. I hunt off HWY 21 between alto and nacogdoches, in the past few years, Rut has been in motion at this point. Just curious if anyone has seen rut activity.

    Hunted all last week in sabine national forrest and did not see any. Just a few scrapes showing up.

      Not much going on as I've seen, but hopefully things will pick up soon (a nice cold front would help)

          saw a 17-18" wide 4.5yr old 9pt chasing saturday morning (11AMish)... he let me get within 30yds of him before he felt it was too close for comfort. (not far off hwy 21 between Nac & SA)

                I sure hope this was while you were hauling hay and you were bowless... Otherwise, you're getting an earfull next time I see you!




                I watched two young bucks licking/chewing and rubbing their heads on branches (100 yds away) last Saturday, in Leon Co. Shouldn't be too long now.

                  Saw a 3.5 yr old buck run a doe off Sunday morn and a 2.5 yr old buck grunting and running through the woods with his nose to the ground.
