Buddy of mine planted our plots this week and says theres real good sign. Part of our land has a peanut fieled on it and it looks like they have been hitting it pretty hard. We'll see what happens.
 
grady county buck

I killed this buck outside of Wigham on Sat a.m. . He was 180 lbs and 20" spread. I saw him with another buck during bow season.

:banana: The rut is here. I shot a buck sun eve that was swollen and stunk. :banana:


I have not seen any rut sign in Ochlocknee,and I know, we are not far from Boston.
From my experience,our farms first rut is the last week of Nov. through the 1st of Dec.With the weeks after Christmas really being the best of the year for seeing big bucks.I think the second rut is better than the first for where I am.Its kinda weird, but I have years of observance to prove it.I only care about the big ones..

Hey Fellows, I Been Getting All Sorts Of Reports Of Ruting Action Spread Out All Over The Place. I Really Think That It Just Depends On The Area Bucks And When Does Go Into Season. For My Area Lots Of Sign And Sightings Btu Nothing To Write Home About Yet. Waiting To Go To Chickasawhatchee In Dec.

Cmon,last year Thomas Co. was the hottest thread going.Wheres the reports?
All I saw this weekend were two 8 pts. both just inside ear,so I let them walk,and about 50 Turkeys this morning.
The sign has increased in the past week.I think things will be full blown within the next two weeks.
Finally got a decent buck on trail cam,not really what I am looking for,but he's not bad.The daytime pic. tells me they are starting to roam.Tarsals are dark,but not stained.

Friend Of Mine Here In Thomas County Shot A Broken Off Ten Point About 170 Lbs, The Entire Right Side Rack Was Gone. He Was In Full Rut, Swollen, Gland Out, And Was In A Major Fight With Another Bigger Buck. He Was Making A Scrape Just Before He Shot Him.
