If there is it's always a very young buck with spikes or such. Some breeding will occur here in late Sept, but peak breeding is mid to late Oct. Last edited by Swamp Wolf; 08/14/23 07:16 PM.

Nov.11 for modern gun Mike, archery is Sept. 2....Got the pictured buck & 2 more to keep tabs on. All 3 on farms where I trapped coyotes for the last 7 yrs, and it seems to be helping a lot.
