I agree with AR that temps are the biggest driving factor in deer movement even during the rut. With warm temps the big boys will still be cruising and scent checking but just will be doing it under the cover of darkness when its alot cooler. As far as time off to hunt goes, well Ive read every Alsheimer book out there and many other moon oriented books for deer movement and have seen some increase in movement over the years but not enough for me to change what has always worked for me. Keep in mind the days of increased activity were also of normal or below normal temps. My vacation this year and for many years in the past will from Nov 2 thru Nov 11. Good luck
