    I’m currently working nights and get to see what’s out and about. The last 5 nights the bucks have been moving all night long. I have seen numerous sets sparring, chasing and rubbing. Another guy saw a buck chasing a doe tonight on a flat out run. I saw 2 decent 8’s the other night sparring in the ditch during a rain storm. The best was tonight. I saw a good 8 and as soon as mt car got close it took off running. He had about a 3 foot branch stuck in his antlers as he was running away. All of these deer live in town, and can’t be hunted but I’m hearing the same type of reports from out in the county also. I quess I should maybe buy my bow tag now.

    Hey, shouldn’t you be out trying to prevent crime instead of shining in the park all night??

    I guess if a guy has to work all night, at least you get to watch the critters!

    Problem is even the city deer are nocternal! Don’t know that I have ever seen so little day movement, I should have stuck to my guns and stayed out til halloween. There ramped up but the best is a week or more out, when the bucks are standing in the road at noon then its go time!

    It’s funny, most of the big bucks are hanging out in peoples back yards. I’ve also seen some good bucks eating buds of the trees in the Menards parking lot and deer crossing through the hospital parking lot.
