Timing of the Rut (South Central Georgia)

[richardca99]

Anyone know when the rut typically falls near Hinesville, GA -- looking particularly for the peak breeding phase?

i kilied a good eight point in long county on 11/10/05 he was hot after a doe when i shot him. and my boy killed a 5 point on 11/12/05 the came in less than 20 min. to a grunt call

Would that go for Valdosta, GA also?? Any of you in Valdosta?? I just got stationed here and all I know to hunt here is the base. I'm about to go door to door for private land hunts.

it also has alot to do with the weather i have been told the sooner it gets colder the sooner the will rut but i am no expert i only can say when i have seen bucks chasing does in the past.
