Just chasing. I saw a nice 8 pt trailing 2 does yesterday . When they got out of sight I rattled him right to me to get a better look . If those doe were hot , no way he'd left them. Not prime time yet, breeding will begin in about a week Big ones are stirring around and it is a good time to catch one easing around.

Well, part of the county.

Saw some light activity on the north end of Sand Mountain yesterday when I was driving through the area. Small bucks pestering does in fields. We are still 2 weeks or so from anything real good at my farm in Skyline. But, nonetheless, I’m ready for it.

I’m on the south end of Paint Rock Valley. Ours seem to get hot around Jan 9 every year.

Yep. Lower end of the Valley west towards county line and Gurley is mid Jan. Those deer were restocked on the Jones Farm and came from a different place than those released at Skyline.

The OP said he saw chasing "on the River". I assumed he meant Tenn River . Central Jackson county , Skyline and upper PRV breeding is last few days of Dec , first few days of Jan.

Chasing is full bore in the North East portion of Madison County where I hunt. Activity has been nonstop on the cameras and from stand.
