RUT DATES?
I am planning on taking three days off work for the rut to bowhunt (before or after a weekend). My boss is out of the office November 7-13 and I have to be in office[:@]. I was thinking November 2, 5 and 6 or should I try for after the 13? Based on what everyone has seen lately can anyone offer a suggestion? BTW I live in Southeast Ohio. Any input is appreciated.

If you can't hunt the 7th through the 13th, I would say that the 2nd - 6th would be a good choice. I have the 6th - 11th off for the rut which usually is prime time. I can't wait! Good luck

RE: RUT DATES?
I dont like hunting peak rut due to the fact that the bucks are usually already with does, I prefer a week or two before and hope that by using estrous scent will convince a buck that a doe has started. With that said Id shoot for the first week of Nov.
