I still have a bunch of trail cams running, and they're not showing much, if any, chasing happening the past few days. I'm sure somewhere there are still some does getting bred late though. Did see one mature buck with both antlers shed already.

Yeah wait till someone kills a really nice buck, then grab the antlers to start dragging... and they POP right off! LOL

Time to start dragging by the neck (w/strap) or by their legs!

I never put much effort in hunting for the 2nd rut...
This late I start hunting the food sources more!
