I'm a little confused and trying to learn something everyday!
I was to thank all of you for the info again!
guasto the rut will start within a day or 2 of when it did last year, the year before that and the 10,000 years before that!!
The moon phase, 1st full moon, 2nd full moon, 10th full moon, barometer, temps or whether or not pauxitony phil seen his shadow or not have nothing to do with it, it all has to do with the amount of light in the day and unless the earth gets knocked off its axis the rut will never change.
The PA. guys are right on the money, the last week of Oct. is the kick off in our area of the country. Pike
