Anyone have anything? We're a little south o Jackson but haven't been able to make it up in a couple weeks. Is it heating up? Right about this time last season is when it got good and the weather has been pretty cooperative.

Haven't really noticed here. I'm in Gunnison(sp). Dad killed a buck yesterday. He didn't seem like he was all in the heat of the rut or anything. Neck wasn't swollen or anything. I've seen tons of does without any bucks after them. Not really sure what else to go by.

I did however see 3 huge bucks driving the levee today. Each one if them was with 3-5 does and a couple small bucks so I could be wrong. I've never been so tempted to break the law in my life

Not many signs in Madison Co. I hunt in Canton. Have seen a few scrapes but that's it. Normally starts next week and week after.

In Northeast MS, dad saw a buck trailing some does this morning. Said he never picked his nose up off the ground.

I hunt west of brookhaven(union church area) and we usually rut heavy around jan 5-10-ish. I'm going today and tomorrow so if I see anything I'll bump with info.

Big boys starting to hit the ground up here around West Point. I've not seen any big ones chasing yet, only small bucks, but it's definitely firing up.

Madison County Report:
Still not a whole hell of a lot going on in my part of Madison County. Few scrapes here and there but that's it. Saw 9 deer this evening and not the first set of horns.

Attalla County Report:
Gained access to some virgin pine land. Made two hunts and saw one doe barreling through the woods on the first hunt and heard two separate bucks grunting in the second hunt. Second buck was making the trending grunt. Never saw either. Here is the sign I'm hunting. I set out a camera this morning so I can't wait to see the culprits in the morning.

I've only explored a small percentage of this property. All these signs are along a hundred yard stretch of logging road.
