Its also possible for a buck to disperse “X” amount of miles as a yearling before he sets up his new future home range…… and then also have movement patterns as an adult that may go out miles from that point……I’m just saying that’s possible for a buck born from a Nov doe or “Bankhead” doe to get killed as an adult a long ways from there. It’s plausible for how the genetic aspect could be at play.



The rut timing can change within a few miles as you move south out of Winston County. From one small community to the next.

Anybody that’s familiar with southern Winston county will be familiar with Black Pond and Poplar Springs. Rock throwing distance apart. First rut window can be two/three weeks apart. And 10 miles farther south in Walker County, add another week or two.
