i know rut activity in PA, even at the earliest, will not begin until the end of this month, with peak normally around halloween/first week of november...however, seeking will get going for me a few days before this, then the chasing and fun

i notice bucks that walk across trails of does, even when not in estrus, will stop and smell the roses, so to say, but i cannot believe she has come in yet, but you never know, we have a bunch of very young doe that come into their first estrus in december, and i have taken bucks in our rifle season in december, who are rutting hard
