What week in Nov?

[mrbb]

I always hunted Ohio the third week of Nov, and always did well
but I was on very good land, I don;'t think it really mattered
the bigger issue IMO is weather, if its warm or wet, thing are always slow

but any time from last week in Oct to mid Dec you have hope of bumping into a good buck
after gun season it gets harder , but till then, any time is good

I also think the very beginning of the season is PRIME time, as so many bucks are still in groups and predictable to food sources
and its a under hunter time of yr, so if on public lands, you have a better shot maybe at having the place to yourself and NOT hunting pressured bucks, as they had a yr almost off
warm weather sucks, as its a morning evening game only, but it can be great hunting!

IMO the last couple of years the rut here in Ohio has been a lil weird, seems that movement was either really good or really bad! Weather prolly being the number one factor. But if I had to take one week, I would prolly go with the 2nd week. But I would say from the last week of Oct through the 2nd week is gonna be your best bet.
