Last 7-10 days of season. Don't know what phase that's after. wink


Thanks man. i always here people say the second is 2 weeks after the first. But you dont really know when to really start counting 2 weeks because all of us have a certain point when we think the rut is. Some think its when they are following and some think its when they are chasing. Really none of that is the actual breeding. Thats really the "hunters rut". I think the actual breeding takes place after the chase and when deer sightings go down.
