[QUOTE="BSK, post: 3435056, member: 17"] I too am curious to see how the rut plays out. As I've said many times, breeding occurs on about the same dates every year, with each area having its own unique timing. HOWEVER, unpredictable combinations of environmental conditions can make it appear to the hunter that the rut is early or late, and sometimes these differences in OBSERVED DAYLIGHT rutting activity can be significantly different than the actual biological peak of breeding. When conducting breeding timing research in GA and SC, hunters sometimes reported peak daylight rutting activity two or more weeks different than the actual peak of breeding. What I find most curious is how sometimes these late or early breeding patterns are not localized at all, but are spread over vast areas of the country, all the way from WI to TN. I have no idea what could effect daylight activity over such vast areas, but I've seen examples of this many times. [/QUOTE]
