Anybody been seeing much movement in Barbour County?

They were moving midday and at night in Clayton this past weekend. Didn't get a chance to hunt this week so I'm not sure if anything has changed with the weather.

We're not seeing as much rut activity this year as we usually do this time of year. Usually by this time, the bucks are really starting to rub and scrape but we've seen very little so far. maybe it will heat up soon.

Very strange year. Movement is almost dead. Hoping it picks up in the next week or so.

Any updates. Anyone starting to see bucks trailing?

Still nothing doing.

Heck, I can't even see a deer.

In the 70's we hunted in the Mt. Andrew area, back to the old Gulledge grocery and over to Evergreen Church and it seemed the bucks would rut in mid Dec. One old buck was killed around 1969 that had a metal tag in his ear showing he was a Michigan stock deer.

nothing down around Clio.just started seeing scrapes about 10 days ago

spent the 1st - the 6th of january in Bullock county and didnt hardly see anything

Good god y'all have to be joking. I hunted on the bullock/Barbour county line in the great hope community from 97-05 and I saw at least 1 deer on every hunt for the last six years I hunted there after I used the first two years making lots of mistakes learning how to hunt. Has the pilgrimage of rich hunters to south Alabama killed the deer hunting down there?

No the deer are still around. Mostly moving at night. Tracks are still everywhere, the deer sightings are just few and far between this year. All this should change starting this weekend with the dark moon.

Exactly, deer tracks are everywhere but they are moving at night.

clayton off poor house rd 1-11 they have put scrapes in one area, lots of tracks, some are large, the full moon is near getten my hopes up, they seem to like the rain & fog when moving, a bright day no luck

I hunt in Barbour bucks have been chasing for a week grunting. We have seen more bucks walking in two weeks than the entire season including bow.

Reports from Union Springs tell me that deer movement slowed a bit in the last week but they can still be seen during daylight.

saw basket rack chasing two does today in Close to Baker Hill area

Young bucks are starting to chase. A big 8 was killed this past weekend can in to rattling and wad starting to stink. Hopefully this cold weather gets the big boys started

Any updates??
