Only small bucks and a few does in daylight. Plenty of good buck activity at night.

My season in Madison county has been fantastic so far.
Had 3 does under my stand on Saturday when I got there. 2 bucks came out about 530 just slightly out of range.
Went back sunday, put up a new stand, same two bucks came out at 530. Put an arrow in the first one, then jumped 2 different ones while tracking him and one standing near my truck when I got back.

Missed a doe Saturday morning at 830. Shot at the biggest of the 3 that came in front of my climber. Hunted Saturday afternoon and didn't see anything until I came out of the woods and saw 8 deer bolt across the field at dusk. Acorns every where and for the most part they are staying out of the bean fields (I have beans in my front yard!).

My scanner has been going crazy with Deer vs Auto accidents for about a week now.That is usally a sign that some chasing and pre rut activity is going on.I am getting less pictures on my cam and they are different deer. There is definitely change in the air.

No trail camera here. But, seeing more in the a.m. going to and from bedding areas. Alot of acorns (not white oaks) on the ground but not really hitting them.
Good luck

Haven't seen that many. Seen a big decline in the past two weeks! Mostly bucks moving at 6 am where there is hardly any light. And a few after dark on cam. starting to see more does move in too. and nothing hitting the acorns..but there are crop fields within 70 yrds of me on three sides.

I hunt in NE Carroll County... Have seen a record number of deer this October. All surrounding Ag fields have been cleared and I have 130 acres of mature hard woods. I saw 18 deer (16 doe / 2 buck) in a two hour sit last week. Yesterday evening I saw 11 deer (10 doe / 1 buck) from 5pm until dark. Ironically, the deer are focusing on a type of red oak! My white and post oaks are poaring acorns, but the deer are hammering the red oak variety. I'll take pic this week for ID.
Now the catch. We only shot 3 year old bucks. We have a few (5)on camera, but none are moving in daylight. Also, there is no chasing or scrape line markings. Only a few rub posts. I believe the next moon cycle will turn my farm inside out!
