What tag does he have? Foothills?

Sounds like good advice!!

Last week saw a muley buck head down nose out chasing some does. Have seen several this week but no signs of rut.  Have seen some lone wt bucks this week (all in the dark). At the end of modern season several guys mentioned that some harvested bucks were showing some sign of rut. Things have gotten cold. Went from 40s overnight to 25 last night.

From my experience the whitetail rut around there is right about thanksgiving. If it was my tag, I would wait for the 2nd weekend to head over. There will be a big difference in rut activity :twocents:

When I was in the Tucannon for my late Muley hunt in 2010 the whitetails were full on in the rut. It would have been the weekend before thanksgiving. They were chasing hard. I think the last half of our hunt this year will be the best for rut action. You won't have any problem finding deer, rut or no rut.
