muggs Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 I saw a doe being "seeked" out by a little four pointer the other day as I was driving. They ran right in front of my truck. He wasn't being that aggressive, but it was definitely some seeking/early rut type of behavior. I'm still seeing a lot of bucks in groups, so I they haven't split up yet. For my $$ I also see outright rut activity the 2nd week of November in northest Ohio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backwoodsbowhunter Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 I've noticed the bucks where I live (eastern Ohio) Have been getting out of their groups and are in transition to start the pre rut. I did see a small 4 pt chasing around some young does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhioHunter Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I live in northeast ohio and we havent been seeing anything here. Just some rubs but nothing major. Heard of a few scrapes but no major activity yet. good luck to all my fellow Ohio hunters! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardwood_HD Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 i saw 5 bucks friday evening along with 12-15 does. 2 of the bucks were chasing a few does around in the field in front of me. None of the bucks i saw were together. had a monster 170+ class deer making a scrape 30yds from me but i couldnt get a shot at him. I did end up taking a doe friday. Watched another buck running 2 does saturday morning. Plenty of movement over the weekend, looking forward to going back home Nov 3-6 i'll be in the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swohiodave Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Clermont county has plenty of scrapes. I found one on the quad trail that we walk in on which i thought was odd. Once in my ladder stand i begin looking around and dang right in front of me about 20 feet i see a scrape, then another about 20 yards from that. Plenty of trees all rubbed up as well. As i recovered my doe i found another scrape and she died next to a tree that was rubbed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHISKEYSWAMP Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Saw a potential shooter last night at about 200 yards... I didn't have my binos with me but he looked to be at least pope and young, past his ears, and had a good size body on him. He walked up a fence row and made a couple scrapes. I first spotted him standing in bean field around 5 and he bedded down. He got up around 6ish and walked a couple hundred yards into the woods with small buck. It was good to see the first possible shooter moving well before dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Saw another roadkill this morning. It was off the road a bit, and still really dark, but I thought I saw antlers sticking up. Big body on the thing though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHISKEYSWAMP Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 (edited) had a 3 year old 10 point at 50 yards last night... he rubbed a couple trees and made a scrape. This was right at 6pm, same time the buck from the day before was up and moving. nice looking buck and hoping he can get passed the other hunters until next year. forgot to mention, I seen 3 roadkill bucks on my way to Columbus Sunday, and a small buck standing out in a bean field just off St. Rt. 33. This was around 11ish. Edited October 26, 2011 by WHISKEYSWAMP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Had a decent 8 pt walk right under me yesterday. He crossed a creek and saw a doe, to which he trotted over to where she was standing and then dogged her, nose to the ground, into the corn.

WHISKEYSWAMP Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 passed on a nice 2.5 year old 10 point and 9 point yesterday morning... thought they were going to duke it out right under my stand. scrapes are everywhere this year and it seems they are checking them regularly.

Tominator Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Saw a shooter 8pt today in New Albany on the way to my brother's. He was standing about 40 yards off the road, just looking to cross. 6 o'clock and he was about to cross a very busy Rt 62. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
