THANKS

I hunt about 8 miles out of Seale.Spent Dec. 18-20 and Dec. 26 - Jan. 1 hunting.Some doe "bumping" and "running" going on.Makes me think many of thedoes around thereare close to a full blown estrus.

FYI - In general, deer movement really picked up around 08:30 a.m. and stayed pretty good until about 10:30 a.m. Middle of the day, at least where I chose to set up in the woods, was more or less "dead". Starting about 3:00 p.m. movement really picked up.It was excellent late in the day - 5:00 p.m. on. I'd say 4X to 5X the movement from 3:00 p.m. until dark:30 than any other 3-4-5 hour period of time. That was the pattern I saw.

I'd be interested to know what you observe.

Seale is a 3rd week of December rut. Ft. Mitchell has a split rut. If you're on the river, it's the 3rd week of November. If you get 3-5 miles off the river, it's January.

It's in full swing here in Wilcox co. My last two deer came in behind does. The full moon of this week is my real target date of full rut.
