First real question.
I hunt in the deer capital of AR, Union County. Saw 9 deer cross the road on the way to work. 3 cars stopped both ways to let them cross. But it has been a odd year. Last weekend the rut was going good with nearly everyone on my 800 acre lease seeing bucks following / chasing does. This week and weekend nothing, not one buck was seen following a doe. Only one deer was seen eating corn (the 10point that was taken). I hink the deer are on the acorns but still...
It is odd. Never seen the rut stop and that is what some of the old timers are saying. Any ideas or can anyone explain this to me? Is it just that they have swapped days and nights? I didn't have a single buck on my trail cam even at night....
I said at the beginning of the year I am killing 4 does this year and I don't see where that is going to be a problem. But the buck hunters in camp are a little frustrated. Let me know what you think.
