[QUOTE="BSK, post: 1500210, member: 17"] This is fairly normal timing for my area. But then range-shift timing will be unique to each property and is probably driven by all available resources with a 1-2 mile radius of that property. In my area, I see two patterns of fall-season range shift. In a poor acorn year, I will see new range-shifters appear from just after velvet shedding until the end of September. Then I won't see any new bucks until the rut range-expanders begin to appear around Nov. 1. But in a good acorn year, I see the same surge of fall range-shifters right after antler velvet shedding, but then I will pick up a few new bucks each week right through October, and then the big surge of rut range-expanders kicks in around Nov. 1. I strongly suspect these patterns of range-shifting are determined by my local situation, with big sections of oak hardwood hills close to large agricultural bottomlands. Each unique habitat situation will probably produce its own unique shifting patterns. [/QUOTE]
