Th rut has begun
« on: November 10, 2008, 08:08:26 PM »
I decided to take a drive after work to see some deer to get some re-motivation.  I was treated t some awesome displays.  I saw 6 bucks chasing does.  One walked right up to my truck then crossed the road in front of me to check out 5 does.  Barely acknowledged I was there.  Here are a couple pics.  Sorry they are fuzzy.  I need to clean my lens.





Here is a video I shot a couple years ago in the same area.

The 4 point wouldn't leave her for a moment. Was grunting every 3 seconds too! Couple others from that day. Four bucks, three with does. Two 2-points, one three, one four.

Sorry for the poor quality, was a camera phone.

People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

If anyone is going to hunt (very) SW I'll let you know where he was. I'm in Oregon anyway plus I don't know how much hunting is allowed near that particular area. But I'll PM you details and you can look it all up and go after him.
