Someone here wrote October 7th....that is WAY OFF. The peak here is usually between the 1st and 3rd week of November. I personally believe that the weather (coldness) affects it a small amount. Also, the time changing later this year may push it back a bit. I killed an 8 pointer in Athens GA last year on Nov. 8th and the deer were beginning rut then. I saw 10 deer that morning and two bucks were chasing does.
Best guess would be around the second week of Nov. Good Luck!
it will be on November 12. that is when the rut is the best
nov 1- nov 10th
The Autumnal Equinox for 2011 is September 23rd. The second full moon after is an approximate time frame for the Deer Rut to generally Begin. This would put the Projected 2011 Rut on or about November 10th.
The 2009 MN rut will peak on or very near November 11. Good luck and safe hunting.
in 2009 and yes that's rite
end of october first wee k November
The South Carolina deer rut or the peak of rut season for the Piedmont is between October 15th and November 15th.
end of october is the begining of the rut and is always a great time to be in the woods
2010 is predicted to be a great hunting year. Because of the low buck harvest of 2009 and the rut of 2010 the size of bucks and also the number of bucks harvested this year should be something to remember. A large number of folks in the hunting fold believe that the deer rut usually occurs during the hunters moon. The hunters moon is the 2nd full moon following the first day of fall. In 2010 That moon would fall on the 22nd of October. Now most would say that is much too soon for the rut, but research has shown that the hunters moon is a fact and that deer DO rut during this moon. As long as the deer herd is healthy and the deer are not extremely stressed. Now the best part of 2010 is that you will also have a good chance at the November full moon to hunt a 2nd phase rut. Some will believe that the cooler weather and shorter daylight hours will be the big reason for the deer to rut on this moon. Either way Im looking foword to it. There are phases of the rut such as seeking, chasing, ect. So when it all boils down to it I believe that the best time to be in the woods hunting the rut in 2010 is October 18th-24 and also November 15th-24th. Good luck
