I made a huge circle around my known deer haunts while scouting for waterfowl/deer early this morning. Normally during rut I will see deer every mile making treks across open ground. This morning, I did not even see a doe in many miles of driving, glassing, etc. It ain't on yet.

This is the kind of post that is very helpful to me. I want to know what everyone is seeing and what their opinions are concerning deer movement and where we are concerning the rut. I wish more of us would post what they are currently seeing.

Where justin_h635 and I hunted this morning, I'd say it's not time yet. He saw three bucks on there own traveling, two older ones, one small. I was a mile away, only saw a dozen does on wheat at first light, then off into the CRP to bed. Did find where someone had backed down into the ditch, and drug a deer out of the pasture to load.....:( Usually there's only one reason you want the tailgate closer to ground too.

Fast forward to this evening and about 40 miles away from this mornings hunt, and there were a few bucks spotted chasing
