I saw a bull this weekend with 2 cows. He seemed to be rutting pretty hard to me. Grunting up a storm and racking bushes

moose rut is a very weird one of all the deer species. I have seen moose in full bore rutting from September to mid November. I have watched areas have the moose in a frenzy the first week of October to die off immediately and then travel a few miles to another area weeks later and see moose going nuts.

Just got back from hunting moose in Montana for 8 days. Would still be there but had truck issues. Seemed like the moose there were starting to rut but not very hard. Covered a ton of ground and ended up actually never laying eyes on a moose. Found an area that had fresh bull pits and it was chewed up with rubs beds and bushes had been fed on hard. We called everywhere and never had a response until the night of the 27th. Heard 4 grunts close to us but then he went silent and never showed himself. Long story short I think some moose are rutting but I don’t think it’s going full bore by any means.

Thought I'd bump this up.  Hows the rutting behavior going now?  Anybody seeing or hearing more activity?

They were rutting on the first when I killed mine. Saw a bull with a cow and another bull bloodhounding a trail.
