This is a question we are often asked. It depends on the type of weather conditions you prefer, and what works for your schedule. We start hunting right after Labor Day in September and go until the end of November. September weather will be the warmest, with highs often around 70 degrees. The last week in September and the first week or so of October are the peak of the fall colors. Cool temps and great scenery!! October is generally a little cooler with highs in the 50’s – 60’s. By the end of October the rut is beginning and will go into the first few weeks of November. That is always a fun time to be in the woods since the deer are just nuts! Very entertaining! It is an opportunity to see behavior you only read about. 

So the bottom line is, the best time is whatever is best for you!!!

To reserve your dates we ask for a deposit of $1000 per hunter. You don’t pay anything else until you have taken your deer. We can accept credit cards and do charge an additional 3%. Otherwise we can accept checks, cash or money orders. Just call us at (715) 550-4192 or email us at wildriverswhitetails@outlook.com to book your hunt. We suggest the earlier the better if you are looking for a specific time frame.
