Nice they are gong in their own with a few days left. I got word my bulls started yesterday as well. I’ll be up there Tuesday to see for myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sjvcon Report post Posted 5 hours ago 5BN has not been overly kind on Rut activity. We've seen Bulls everyday...but not responding. You have to go get them. We've been close to taking shots, but something always derails it....my boy is frustrated but determined to keep pushing until dark on Thursday. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is the rut picking up intensity, Or you thinking it’s been so bad eventually it must pick up? I don't think it will be a real crazy rut during rifle and muzzy, but on a year with a great Sept rut it slows down immensely during muzzy and rifle. This year it won't slow down as much as normal it should just stay consistent longer. Also last year was a pretty bad drought and rut year and I'm seeing a bunch of calves that are only a couple weeks -month old. It seems like many of the cows in my neck of the woods didn't get bred until Oct or Nov last year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First they give up location and second if a bull hangs up at 150yds with a muzzy or rifle in your hands completely different story than a bow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
