Matt,

If our weather/season plays out like it did last year, I would shoot for the second week. Our season ended just too early last year based on the activity I saw. I saw/had more bucks near range in the last week last year, and the activity was just starting to pick up. The day after the season closed I had a real nice 6-point, nose to the ground, run straight toward me in an open field, with no cover between us, and he never saw me until he got about 20 yds away...guess what was on his mind?
