Yup. The rut range expansion/shift usually begins around Halloween in my area. I will pick up the first pictures of most of the rut range shifters between the last few days of October and November 15.

These range shifters just passin thru, or do they go somewhere new and stick around?

These are bucks that normally don't utilize the monitored property, but due to either range expansion or acual range shifts, start using the property just before the rut peaks. These bucks usually continue to use the property for 4-6 weeks before disappearing back to where they came from. Some rut range shifters/expanders show up on the monitored property year after year, but only during the rut.

I guess you are hoping that the buck from last year that had a chandlier on his head shifts to your property. You know, the buck that had his antlers sheared off.  (assuming he is still living)

I am VERY VERY hopeful to have a chance encounter with the fella I saw last Thursday morning. Thats the one and only time I've seen him with extensive time in the tree.

You think ? John?
Bryan what do you think?
For my 'area' - he'd be a 2.5 - 1.5's are pretty small -=

Yup. He's used my property during the rut every year since at least the age of 2 1/2. Last year he was 5 1/2.

There's the possibility he's a yearling. I would need to see a few more full profile pictures.

Ferg...I can only speak for my area in Fentress and I would age that one over here at 1.5...and, honestly, I have no credentials for aging deer other than what I've seen in my area over the last 20 years..
