[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5493066, member: 17"] You're describing to a T what I'm hearing from so many hunters in the region. I don't know why the sudden decline in older bucks, but it is very apparent. I suspect it is more a lack of activity by older bucks that is keeping their range-shifting to a minimum that is producing the low numbers on camera. I'm also seeing myself and hearing hunters say they've not seen yearling bucks so actively participating in the rut like they are this year. I've got tons of yearlings working scrapes and chasing does on camera, something they normally wouldn't be doing because of the large number of older bucks we usually have around. I've even got two yearling bucks flat-out fighting on video. Not seen that before. Lots of sparring but not truly fighting. [/QUOTE]
