southwest idaho (unit 40)

any signs of rut activity?

haven't heard much from 40 but from what i've been seeing and hearing in 39 it'll be another week or two. id say next storm and a little closer to full moon. new moon is this weekend and full moon is the 21. late this week and early next week should be good travel times. today is the first day i've seen them migrate in northern utah and ours usually follow right after. (im a dedicated truck driver for the i-84 corridor so i see quite a bit lol) does any one else agree with aproximate rut times?

bagged a halloween buck in 39. big, fat, rut neck and smelled rutty, shot him while chasing does. or he was just running behind them, hard to tell in this case. good luck to ya.

I drew unit 42 but won't be leaving till the 4th for my hunt. Even though I haven't been there yet, I'm expecting the rut to have a good start by now.

Yeah the deer are for sure rutting in 40 already at least up high anyways.
