Strut10 Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 My trailcams showed that the hot & heavy chase began here on Sunday. Monday morning I saw 9 different bucks from the stand. Tuesday morning.........5 different bucks. This morning............1 buck. Monday I saw only a doe or two. Tuesday nite I watched 7 does feed on acorns for an hour without being checked by a single buck. This morning I had 2 does feeding on acorns for 1/2 hour and never had a buck come through. Strange how the action had about a 1 1/2 day furious rush then nothing. This morning was 20 degrees. Shoulda been just perfect for bucks to be running. Beats me.

RangerClay Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Yoohoooo! It's a full moon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 I bet you had one hot doe come into estrus, she got bred, and now they have began cruisin for another... Yoohoooo! It's a full moon! Those were my 2 first thoughts Don. Either they are on lockdown (which seems a little early) or it's the moon phase. Around me the little guys sure are chasing. I have yet to see a shooter, but it's not far off I don't think. This weekend should be golden, although it's going to be a bit warm.

buckbuster11 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I'm really having the same kind of action the last couple weeks. We have standing corn still up everywhere. My brother has been sitting just inside the woods by a small cornfield the last 3 nights and watch the deer pour out of the corn right before dark. Different bucks every night. Meanwhile I'm way back in the woods seeing 10 deer one night and nada the next. Full moon and tons of standing corn still are 2 major problems right now I reckon.:hammer1: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Similar here....saw a buck tonight...15 yards out..tempted, was a little like 4 point but I said to myself "If I gotta drag a heavy buck body out, it's gotta have a bigger rack than that",lol. Otherwise great weather but no movement...things have got to heat up soon.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buck75 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 It's the moon but on the bright side it will be rising later each day and by next week will be up most of the day instead of all night. It should keep them on their feet most of the day!!! And I am on vacation starting Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master_Chief Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Sounds good to me. I leave for Pa tomorrow and hunt the last week. Looks like it should be a good week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full moon and tons of standing corn still are 2 major problems right now I reckon.:hammer1: That's the exact problem I'm having. I'm hunting a cornfield corner that's near a thicket, deer have been traveling between the two but I haven't been seeing deer in the evening. I'm seeing all my deer in the morning on their way back into the corn. With the full moon, I haven't seen anything besides turkey the last two evening hunts I've been on.

Strut10 Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Hunted the hottest entrance area to the back of the Ranch this morning. Should average 15 to 20 deer past this stand in a morning hunt. Saw a grand total of one doe and two scrub bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
