November is a call to action in the deer woods.
Bucks and does are answering the mating mandate and a host of exciting behaviors can bring them past your stand.
During the rut, bucks concentrate on does, not on food, water, or traditional travel routines. This may seem to make hunting easier, since you can go where you usually find does, like food plots, progressing clear cuts, or agricultural fields. However, many hunters will be surprised to learn that does change their behavior in the rut as well.
This video from GrowingDeer.TV lays out a successful and thought-provoking strategy for hunting the rut.
