My rut was Nov 14. Game cams showed many deer visits that night..every ten to fifteen minutes all night long. Ive seen a lot of deer but no shooter bucks for my standards. Saw 9 doe Tue. evening eating in my food plot and no buck came in the hour they were there....1st rut is over here. Second rut and a better chance for a big buck will be around muzzleloader opening weekend. Good luck to all hunters....h.h.
