Lawrence county rut

Just curious when they rut in Lawrence county?

Anytime from November to February depending on where you are. Specifically where in LC?

Totally depends on where you are. South Lawrence Co along the Bankhead is mid to late November. In the valley to courtland and east to Trinity it’s early to mid December. Over near Colbert county you’ll get some January and February bred does.

Even around courtland where the primary breeding takes place in mid December I’ve collected a March bred deer.

Around town creek ?

I would venture to guess about Christmas through mid January or so, to be generous. I have hunted more toward Hatton and Mt Hope and that is when they went into rut this past season. That's fairly close to Town Creek.

I hunt close to Town Creek. It’s mid December till first of January. Christmas week is usually a good week.

I am off for Christmas Break and this is the special time to be in the woods. I hunt close to Town Creek also and it is magic in the air those two weeks. My son just got a mount back from Artistic Whitetails that was 8.5 years old. He ordered a special form due to the neck being so huge. These deer share some of the same characteristics as the Bankhead deer.

Yep. As in the fact there's not a lot of them too. But when you see one he's liable to be a stud.

All that ag land around Town Creek is great for antler growth and healthy deer too I’d imagine.

Try finding a tract of land to hunt in this area. It doesn't exist! The creek bottoms along Town Creek hold some good deer. If I could only have one place to hunt in AL, it would be here.

That area between Town Creek and Courtland on Hwy 20 is some prime real estate for deer hunting.

Row crop farming has essentially wiped deer out mostly in that area. Sorry.

I'll take a hunt in the valley any day compared to up on the mountain. I hunt both and got my best deer yet (10pt) near TC. December hunts are best in the valley.
