DUG Report post Posted December 10, 2015 I have the late WT hunt in 23 that starts tomorrow. Is this front that's coming in going to help the rut? Due to stupid work I may only be able to do weekend hunts and then may be able to hunt the last 2 or 3 days of the season. My son and nephew will not let me shoot a dink. I would like to find something over 100" which I know is a dink to some of you.....Good luck to everyone with late tags! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Browns Report post Posted December 10, 2015 We will be in 22. I think the front is going to help due to the dropping temps. The only thing that is going to hurt is the added wind. If anyone see's a good Deer in 22 please give me a call. I can use all the help I can get. Adam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DesertBull Report post Posted December 11, 2015 Does coming into estrus is brought on by the length of day (photoperiod) not by air temperature. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
