Anyone seeing any action still going on in the thickets of South Texas? I hope to be heading down to Bee county for a few more days and I hope some of the big boys are still moving.

I was down in Webb Co. this past weekend, and it was frustrating. We have yet to see much rut activity. A little pushing of the does, but mostly eating. The oldest buck seen this past weekend was a 4.5yo. We just aren't seeing the more mature bucks out. Very weird year.
My wife's only thing is it can't stare at her when she is eating or sleeping!

2 weeks ago our bucks were just starting to show signs of rutting. I was wanting to go down and do some ratling this weekend and hope it sint too late. I dont think it will be. We still have a couple of good bucks that have not showed themselves this year that are on the hit list.

I have friends on a lease in Webb County and they have had a horrible season this year. They just got back from a 10 day hunt with nobody shooting a deer. Like was stated above, the big boys just are not moving for some reason.

Like was stated above, the big boys just are not moving for some reason. my buddy hunts a place near bruni and they have been seeing some good bucks, one guy killed a 165 and saw one that would be over 170
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Redchevy, I tried rattling last week and got no response. Usually, this time of year we see lots of bucks...many that we've never seen before. Isn't happening this year. You're down around Hebbronville, right?
