In this video I reveal what 12 years of trail camera data tell us are the best few days each rut to plan your rut hunting time on stand.

i really appreciate the effort it must have taken to collect all of this data. Please keep it coming.
@@nybbhUSA you bet- thanks for the note- good luck this season!
Great info, I’m retired and hunt last week of October and first 2 weeks of November so i NEVER miss pre or rut. Retirement is great🏹🏹🦌🦌
I agree with your info 100%. I've been doing this for 30 years on small parcels in farm country. One thing I would like to add is I truly believe you only have a 1 or 2 day opportunity to get a chance at the biggest buck in your area. If we only new that day ahead of time things would be much simpler. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
I believe the little drop offs to those small bell curves are the red moon phase…the second red moon is quick and sweet 🎯🎯🦌
Very interesting data. Thank you for all the time and effort.
Last few days of October to the first few days of November is my usual rut-cation. All day sits near bedding on a known trail, pinch point or funnel
I've got almost 20 years of pictures in the big woods of Northern WI and can confirm your data is spot on. I've also noticed the mid Oct. bump. My theory is that is when the bachelor groups are breaking up and the bucks are starting to set there territories. Lots of rubs and scrapes start showing up at that time. They also are hitting food sources for one last bulk up before the rut.
@@peternelson7544 interesting- and your theory makes sense. I’ve also pondered if it has to do with a certain percentage of does (a very small percentage) that come into estrus early before the typical estrus cycle. But that doesn’t totally add up in my head either. Anyways- thanks for sharing and good luck this fall!
@@northernforestwhitetail I think you're correct. I see a peak in late October and then a drop before the big activity. I think it's a bit of estrus in the air for the first time. Lots of work in doing this, thanks.
Great information. Can't beat the first week of November!
@@kfusmc for sure- good luck this fall!
Bill Winke has talked about that he sees a spike in buck activity in mid-Oct and he says that he thinks it is because there are a few does that come into estrus a month early. That makes perfect sense to be because this peak is almost exactly 28 days before the primary peak.
Just a thought to explain the lack of photos of bucks on Nov 11-13 could be the bucks are locked down with the does and not traveling much. Love your videos focused on the north country, it’s totally a different game !!
That is a monster on the start of this video! Nice!
My favorite TH-cam channel! I hunt in Northwest Minnesota and see very similar patters with your dates. November 11th always seems like a slam dunk for me. You should also chart times of the day! That would also be very interesting.
@@jaredschaefer-gx7hz hey thanks for the comment I appreciate it! Funny you ask- that’s actually my next video topic- should be dropping a week from today
Nice video. My experience matches yours. In Missouri Nov 1-12 is rut seeking and then chasing. Nov 14 is peak conception day and cruising reduces. About Nov 23-27 is a great time too. I don’t have an Oct 15 bump.
Good stuff Matthew! Thanks my friend😊
@@matthewwichtner2935 you bet!
Good info! May be applicable to me as it sounds like I aint too far from you. It always seemed to me during the full moon time in October, there was more nocturnal activity.
Good information, looking back most of my bucks first week of November or last 4 days of November. Good luck this year.
@@briangregory6692 interesting- good info and good luck this season!
Awesome video! Keep up the great work!
@@derekschenk4296 thanks I appreciate the note- will do!
Those little blips would be the pre rut and post rut/second rut
That's awesome!
Great Video, thanks for this information.
@@fishtraphunter5607 you bet thanks for watching. I hope you get a nice one this year
Great video! Have you ever went on weather underground historical data and checked wind direction to each camera pic to see how the buck is using the wind in each pic? I think that would be a vital pc to the puzzel! Thanks
@@patschuette8045 I have thought about that and I even did some research on it. Honestly I saw buck movement (and traveling in directions) that wasn’t always traveling into the wind. And it was difficult to determine what direction the buck was always traveling as a whole. I think that’s an important piece too but with my efforts I wasn’t able to determine a specific pattern with bucks and how they travel into the wind (or lack thwreof).
Great video and information. Any plans to crunch the numbers to see if you can correlate peak times of the day for movement?
@@ChrisWilliams-nu1sf hey thanks for the note- that topic of peak “times” is my next video! Stay tuned for next weekend 👍
Nov 7-8th have been good to us here in Townsend Wis! Thanks for all your effort, now I’m retired I like the following week also for cruisers?
@@deanmccabe8783 my dad says he “recommends retirement for everyone” ha. Good for you on earning your retirement. Good luck over there in Wisconsin this fall!
Global warming? Here in Quebec I note that colder weather seems to coincide with high buck activity and it happens later than usual those last years. Mid November has seen more territorial activity than female chase, in my opinion. This year I will try to hunt the second half of November, hoping for cold and some snow.
Helpful info.
@@daveguttormson6315 glad you liked it good luck this fall!
Good info.
@@Buckman-101 thanks- good luck this year!
The movement in my area is about 5 days delayed from yours. Biggest buck I ever saw in daylight hit a scrape I had on my camera on October 23
@@dbconstruction8904 what part of the country?
@@northernforestwhitetail far north eastern Wisconsin, pretty similar to your area
👍
Interesting. Here in WV, we are ten to fourteen days later than you. And the biggest and most mature bucks I’ve seen in the daylight are always right after peak breeding, which would coincide with that small bell curve your data shows. Maybe the youngest does begin coming into estrous then, and the mature bucks know this, and let the younger bucks breed then older does? I’m not sure, that’s what I’ve found on lightly pressured land.
@@RS-ms1bz I bet that has something to do with it. Good luck this season!
I'd like to link up I have some data in NY and putting the same thing together
@@WesternNyBigfoot let’s do it sometime- you guys out east hunt similar conditions as we do here
