Yeah, I'm hoping for a cold snap that week. The one problem I have noticed is that the moon will be on it's way to full that week. Hopefully that won't make then too nocturnal. If it is cold enough, that should have them up moving in the middle of the day...in theory!

My buddy that has the land in Schyuler county said they saw the best rutting activity the last week of October and the first week of November. I'm hoping that since we'll be farther North of there, we'll hit it just right. Needless to say, I can't wait for next fall!
We'll have to meet up for a cold one on our way through!
