Just wondering how the activity is in the south, headed up to North Baldwin for the weekend of 2/2 and hoping they are running. We usually make it in late January but had to wait this year. Seems like everything was a week later than usual where i hunt in MS so if that’s the case they should be starting about now and rutting pretty good come beginning of February. Any reports or do you think that’s accurate?

They seem to be a lil late here in western Houston county . There still hitting the scrapes so that tells me they aint chasing yet . It was full blown this week last yr .

I'll be in Covington County come Friday morning. Anybody seen any activity in that area?

Not really. Scrapes, Rubs, and young bucks trailing. Havent seen any chasing yet, but did see a doe with dark tarsals yesterday afternoon.

Near Castleberry, there hasn't been much activity or signs of rutting. We did just have a few scrapes show around food plots this past week though.

February 11th should be gold.

North Baldwin...Feb 2...knock your safety off when you leave the truck...just kidding but for real.

Few of us saw small bucks chasing does 2 weekends ago around the snow. Then nothing since. Haven't really seen anything else. I'm in conecuh county, northwest of evergreen. Don't know what's up with em. Time will tell

Lol, it’s usually pretty exciting end of January and early February. Last few years the end of January was fire. Seems like this year from what i’ve seen might be glad we’re going a week later.

its hot and heavy where I'm at in coffee county. Same as it always is this time of year.

North Pike County hasn’ t been hitting on much so far.

**where I’m sitting anyway

South Monroe co. We killed 4 bucks in the last 5 days. 3 8pts and a 6pt. 3 of the 4 were alone and just cruising. One was about 5 mins behind 2 does. No chasing yet.

February 3 has been money for me since the extension. Scrapes just started showing up in the past week. Bucks are finally breaking up.

They are late in Pike county this year for some reason. A friend of mine killed a nice 10 yesterday just above Troy that was stinking and his neck was starting to swell.

NOthing happening where we hunt at so far.

I see some of the best rutting activity down here during Turkey season.

NOthing happening where we hunt at so far. [/quote] Deer already adjusting to the season extension. Lol

Couple years ago I had a buck I ended up killing the next year on camera chasing does in march so I don’t expect much

I watched bucks running does like crazy at work this afternoonin Pike County.

We are gonna change that to 5 bucks in 6 days. Another good one went down while checking a scrape on the edge of a plot this afternoon.
