Do all you guys have pineal glands in your foreheads because it is uncanny how you all know when the rut is in your section of the state. If you can't take three bucks within the timeframe of Oct15-Jan31, you need to hone your skills. In areas of the state with an overabundant doe population, skewed ratios, the rut might extend into March, so should we go ahead and extend the season into March so we don't miss a chance at one of the bucks that's chasing does in estrous at that time? The dates should remain where they are at the current time, that is, unless you're 49'er, then you should have the constitutional right to hunt year-round for subsistence purposes.
