Is there any rhyme or reason to the date assignments? In other words, does KY follow a annual progression where you can predict 2015 dates?
Just trying to make some plans here and the application period doesn't open until 9/1.
Thx Bill

Bill, I'm not sure I understand your question, but it seems like the KDFWR sets the hunt dates(quota hunts) based on what they've done in the past, not necessarily on the rut. Does that help? Maybe you can look back and see when the hunts were last year and previous years.--John

Sorry, confusing I know.
I have the dates from last year. I just didn't know if the dates change year to year and if so, do they change on some type of schedule where I can predict the dates for this year.
I'm looking at a few areas and wanted to bowhunt them before the gun quota hunts happen, etc.

I'd suggest you call the KDFWR and just ask them to see if you can find someone that is knowledgeable and willing to help. I'd think they would try to keep approximately the same schedule. Most, if not all, of those dates will coincide with Saturday/Sunday hunts. Good luck!
