My buddy killed this one Monday before thanksgiving last year 11/19. It was the opening day of gun season in WV, but he was bow hunting in a bow only county.

I don't know why, but I've killed most of my archery bucks between October 10-17. It's a wierd set of dates and that is usually when the "October Lull" is kicking in, but that's been a good time for me.

Get a handful of P&Y magazines and all the info you need is there.. I did that for a particular county in Illinois a few years back and found Nov. 9-12 was by far the most productive.
