Leaf drop
How are the other areas of the state. Here in the SW it is way behind normal. I would say 10% are starting to change. Most of the oaks and maples are still green.
Also, while in my stand, the understory growth is still pretty thick limiting visibility. I checked out one of my rut stands and I could barely see 12 yards.
Could be wierd hunting the first two weeks in November with green leaves and limited visibility during the rut. The 14 day forecast I saw this morning had no chance for a frost in the next two weeks here. We have yet to get one.
