Default RE: IS THE RUT ON IN PA YET?????????

I hunt in Bucks County and agree with BearMt's assessment. The deer were running does hard the end of October and early November. The warm weather seems to have put a halt to daytime activity. I've seen large bucks running off smaller bucks and have heard a good battle go on through the woods while hunting - I didn't see it though. None of the other hunters on the property rattled on that particular day. And, worst of all, I missed a big eight-pointer the first Saturday of November. He had his nose to the ground and was walking very stiff-legged.

Best of luck to you. Hopefully the deer "reappear" when the guns start going off.
