Hunting the Rut is like nothing else. Not just for the opportunities it presents to harvest a nice buck, but because we can see deer activity like no other time of the year. All of us who have spent anytime in the deer woods during the Rut have stories that will be with us forever.
Being in the woods when the first does start coming into estrous, and the bucks start running around can be thrilling. The spectacle of moving deer, and the sound or breaking branches, or bucks grunting can be overwhelming.
Some of us even have the video to keep. Here’s an example: This video captures a buck interacting with two does, one probably in estrous and the other just hanging around. It’s a great video, with lots of action. At one point, you’ll notice one of the does hides in the thicket, and disappears for a bit. Things get really crazy when the buck chases the doe into a lake.
