i voted on the latest dates, deer season really dosen't seem to be the best here till after christmas, i have killed most of my mounted deer from then till the end of jan., one thing that i think effects our different stages of ruts is the sheer number of does we have, if they don't get breed the first cycle they will be back in season in 30 days, just a thought, but i saw a decent buck the other day doggin several does, but i dont see how all the does could be breed the first time they come into heat, possible i guess, but i still consider x-mas till jan 31 the prime time
