Are there any areas of Jackson Co that are chasing right now?

I’m in Paint Rock Valley. Our is usually the Teen days of January.

In-laws live just north of the line. Christmas week is usually theirs.

The data we collected for years was in January. Exact timing varied across the county but January was the primary month.

What about around Bridgeport?

Should be a little earlier up near Bridgeport.

Should be about a week away for some chasing to begin in central Jackson, Hytop and upper PRV areas . Peak breeding for those areas is very early Jan.

I forgot I had the conception date study data saved…….For Jackson Co I'm showing 6 locations where samples were taken….These were the earliest breeding dates sampled for each location

Bridgeport……Dec 21
Gulf Coon Tract…..Dec 14
Hales Cove – Jones…..Jan 3
Waterfowl WMA…… Dec 20
Letson Point……Dec 22
TVA Belfonte……..Dec 11

The reason I was asking is because if there were native deer still left in the area when restocking happened they should have had a mid to late Dec rut date……If that’s the case then the way it looks is that they most likely existed around the river in the northeast corner…..If you look at the Jones tract they sampled 152 does and their earliest outlier was Jan 3…….That kinda leads me to believe that those mid December does in the other areas didn’t come from the same stocking source.....Some of those other locations like the GC tract only had like 5-10 does sampled and were already picking up mid Dec does
