Any Coleman county hunters on here? Deer have really slowed down on hitting the feeders and bucks were still paired up last weekend on my place. What are y’all seeing?

We saw lots of does in coleman county and almost zero bucks. And we know plenty of bucks live on the place but they weren't moving. When are the bucks usually chasing the does in coleman county? We are in coleman county close to brown county. This our first year on this new ranch

We saw plenty on our Coleman lease we are directly on the Colorado river our bucks finally split up this week but are still hitting feeders decently. Have a couple bucks with swollen necks already chasing but the week before of and after Thanksgiving seem to be our best rut times in our area.

We are in SE Coleman County. Haven't been out to the place in a few weeks. Was wondering the same thing about movement right now. Will be headed out for 4 days tomorrow evening. Hopefully there is a little bit of movement.

Seeing lots of young deer but the mature ones are laying low. The young bucks were starting to chase last weekend so maybe this weekend will be even better.

Same here to the north of you. The pasture looks like a giant food plot right now. Slowest start to an opener that I can remember.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.

I’m thinking it’s going to be sooner this year. This cold front may kick it off. I’ll let you know in the morning!

I hunt on the coleman county line close to brown county. One of the slowest opening weekends in the 15 years I have been on the place. No mature bucks on camera, the deer are walking past the feeders and not stopping, and no little bucks chasing yet. I hope it will pick up this weekend. The RUT normally starts a week or so before thanksgiving but can run a bit later occasionally.

I was out this evening and let a young buck walk. Heard a number of shots from surrounding properties, but we also have some HF ranches around us, so could have been from them. Hopefully things will be moving in the morning!

Things seem to be a bit slow getting cranked up this year; perhaps this next cold front will get the big boys motivated. Of course, if you're in the right place at the right time wonderful things can happen. This low-fence buck was taken by a hunter on a friends ranch close to Novice this morning. 158 and change...not too shabby!

Deer were running hard last night as we were entering our place, but have not seen much this morning. Rut is on.

I have a property in Coleman County that is near the border of Brown County. Seeing plenty of does - they are hitting the oats food plots hard. Not as many bucks as I'd like. Letting the two nice bucks I've seen mature and spread their seed. Praying the neighbors don't take them. They are 2.5 - 3.5 years so still time to grow nicer racks.

I’m headed out tonight to hunt a couple days. Hopefully they’re on the move. I’ll be east of Coleman 3-4 miles

Still slow as far as mature deer go. Hoping it picks up soon.
