Default Question about the rut in Kentucky

I am trying to make my plans to rifle hunt next month here in west Kentucky and with this being only my second season to hunt up here I need a little help deciding which days to take off work. Last year I was off most of the rifle season but did not see much rut action until about the 20th so I feel like I wasted a number of days earlier .I have been told by several deer hunters here that the rifle season (Nov.8th-23rd)and the rut generally are close to the same times however this year it appears that there will be a full moon right in the middle of rifle season (10th-16th)...I was wondering if some of you veteran Kentucky hunters could enlighten me when would be the best time to hunt and if i n your opinion the full moon will effect the rut?
