Deer movement

[W.Seay]

Just curious, when have y'all been seeing the deer move the last few days, any midday movement?

I haven't been out in the last few days. lol I'm headin out this eve for the first time in over two weeks tho. Hoping to see that sweeping rut action from W Tn coming across to the E side, as the timing is right for some 2nd rut action in my neck of the woods from any does that didn't get bred the first go round.

We almost never see midday movement. All I'm seeing on trail-camera is more afternoon feeding in food plots that what I had been seeing earlier in the season.

4pm till dark in the backyard. Haven't been to the woods in quite a while.

Lots of ladies walking the open fields in the evenings, saw 16 in the field at 5:30 Christmas eve down the road from where I hunt. Hope to get one coming or going tomorrow.

4pm till dark in the backyard.

That's what I'm seeing on camera.

It was dead this morning. I would be shocked if this afternoon is not good. Only daylight camera activity has been in the late afternoon.

Late afternoon movement the most here.

Last Sunday I did my first mid-day hunt on my property! Got in the tree after church (1145) and had a dead doe by 230. There were 5 of them in the pack!!

Saw 7 does behind my house yesterday at sunset before i went to work.

4 in the field on another property,

then 1 comes running by close to the fence, followed by 2 more on my side of the fence. Being in my own backyard I went to get my bow out of the truck but when I got back they were gone.

I was going to hunt this morning but went and slept in. Tomorrow I should hit up the WMA most likely, hope they are moving.

8:30 till 11 am...and 3pm till dark. Sporadic....but when you see them, it will be several at a time. Hardeman Cty. No breaking daylight activity.

late in the day, but not a lot this year. Maybe the cold temps will heip.

No afternoon hunts but the last week I've seen almost all my deer between 8 and 10 AM.

I saw 7 does from daylight until 8 am this morning. I was hunting a stand of mature oaks within 50 yards of very thick cover. I haven't seen any mid-day activity in the last three weeks (camera and hunting).

Dad and I sat this evening and saw 21 between the two of us; exactly 1 buck in the bunch that was pushing a doe (I think she was in heat).

 

[W.Seay]

I sat on a food plot from 1:30 til after dark and saw nothing! I knew we (my son and I) should have set up on one of our corn fields!!! Oh we'll we had fun just being together outdoors. Maybe better luck tomorrow!
