Should be an exceptional weekend but I’ll not be afield. Probably get out late the 1st week and 2nd weekend just to watch the deer be deer and maybe take a few pics. Myself and the 2 guys I hunt with the most are all tagless but we’ll spend a few days just watching the rut.
Heard a cat screeching on the way down to recover my deer last fall. Never saw it but it wasn’t far <1/2Mi. Dunno if it was a Bobber or a Lion as I’m fully cat-call ignorant. Who knows, maybe a guy can catch a glimpse while watching the rut.
Pheasants, coyotes, and perhaps may notch a turkey tag or two.
