Grouse I think your dates would be fine. As an avid bowhunter. I have killed my last 4 buck duing the first week of November. Seems as though the younger bucks begin harassing the does as early as mid October. But the big boys don't start to cruise until just after Halloween.
During that first week of November, I've seen as many as 7 buck in one day. And that is in an area were I may sit 2 or 3 days without seeing a single deer.
