Rut Predictions for West Tennessee

[jaxvol]

What are the predictions for the 2024 rut in West TN? (I'm in Jackson, TN).

With a few rare exceptions, it should fall on exactly the same dates for a given property every year. The one caveat is severe drought and/or deer illness. I've seen peak breeding fall as much as 10 days late in severe drought years, especially in combination with an EHD outbreak.

It starts when the first doe is bred and ends when the last 1 is bred, there will be peaks and valleys of activity,
