Well if u are hunting kentucky i would reccommend rifle season, but if you have to bowhunt, i would look at tr michels web sit to look at peak rut movement. Rut is a very weird thing, what could be hot at your spot in ohio, you could drive 20minutes across the river and the buck havent even started yet, its kinda funny.its the same with turkeys because i hunt kentucky and ohio every year. I plan on hunting late november but i will do some glassing in early november to make sure nothing is happening too early, then if so ill adjust my schedule to get in the stand.
