I'm glad everybody else is seeing the same thing I am- means I'm not losing my mind. I didn't get out much the early parts of November but my taxidermist is out on his lease in Ohio and had awesome action with the big boys on their feet chasing around Nov 2-4th and it has slowed for him since. For me I almost got a crack at a nice buck locked down with a doe- wouldnt leave the thick and the nasty and actually mounted her... this was the 8th. I'm gonna get in the thick and the nasty Friday and Saturday all day- 5 or 6 does using this particular secluded bedding.
As muddy said, I'm certainly hoping the "seeking phase" kicks back in- My favorite time to hunt

I sat all day, every day, the 1st thru the 7th before I saw a buck over 120 inches. Kept my head in the game as best as I could but the 6th/7th it started to turn on and within a few days I honestly think bucks were locked down. It was a freaking frenzy all weekend and I passed a few good ones. Hope this weekend has some bigger bucks up and moving.
Other than the one I hit 11-1 I have had similar season.

Crappy rut for my dad, wife, and I. One of the places we hunt has been a complete bust even though it has produced a couple of opportunities every year. I know the bucks are there, but we aren't seeing them.
