In N J the rut will go into full swing on the 19 th of Nov. I know everyone has it down at different times but you will start see the kill ratio vs sighting go up. Just watch the posts start poping up.
I hunt in zone 9, 8 and 13. Finally the last few days my buck sightings are way up with a few new big guys roaming. Definitely picking up here. I know some have seen it for awhile, others say its over, but for me its just getting good.
I sure hope your right but traditionally you are way off... Unfortunately I have been gutting my house from the flooding on the Jersey shore and haven't been out since the permit season started. Got back to work Monday and saw more deer in a single day in my parking lot than anytime I have been in the woods. Including what will be a slammer next year assuming he lives. He was a 5 point the hard way. 3 points on the left and a brow and a broken main beam on his right side. Assuming he was a six and the side that was broken I would geuss he was probably 22 or so inches wide. He was tending a doe 20 feet from the door of my office in Red Bank on Newman Springs rd.
