RE: The "October Lull"
ma hunter...I've posted this exact topic a couple times in the past and never had much response. I firmly believe in it and have read about it in different articles. In my area it is thick timber mostly with acorns dropping everywhere. Deer will have sufficient cover and food within a very small area...they don't need to move much and I think they eat and bed, eat and bed, eat and bed and don't move far at all. It makes for very tough early season hunting. Once the rut comes however, the bucks really start to move and it gets very exciting.
