My opinion Is that temps don't mean much at all. If a doe Is In heat a bucks going to chase her regardless of what the temp Is or how warm It Is. Get out there and hunt them no matter the temp, It's getting time!!

Oh I will be, no matter what. We're entering the final 2 weeks here, and I will be out in any weather.

I just got a phone call from a friend of mine about 2 minutes ago. A friend of his just hit a decent 8 or 10, not sure what a decent buck Is to these guys but our temps here In Minnesota are overly warm this time of year. Someone else mentioned In this thread that these bucks will move more In the mornings when Its overly warmer In the day, they nailed It!

Above normal temps will have no affect on rutting activity- sadly though, the majority of the activity will take place at night and on the fringe up sun up and sun down.
