Do the deer at Barbour and Lowndes rut "early" and those WMA's just have the misfortune of being in the south zone or was the "increasing opportunity" logic only applicable to the Choccolocco and Black Warrior hunts?
How long do you think it will take before we get a 3rd zone so folks in those early November rut areas get to gun hunt the rut. It appears that the data is their to support a season shift.
Lowndes rut kicks in after first week of January typically but I've seen rutting activity well into Febuary.
