Bow doesn't open till September 27 in the area I hunt.
That would be correct. The closest Saturday to October 15th.Quote:

Not too long ago, it used to be the Saturday closest to October 3rd,
These kind of info (shared among first hand hunters ) makes the Forum being invaluable source of "hard to find" or obscure data!
Thank you for the Thread!
ps-since they moved Opener to Saturday Closest to 15 Th(and 15th is Wednesday)it will be Oct 8th....
Only in 2028 and after for few years will be like closer to Oct 1st (not much though)something like Oct 14-th.......
This Opener shift bites into the Prime deer Hunt season for sure!!!!
