As someone who hunts in area 9 in St. Mary parish. We barely have rifle season during the rut. I always say rifle should start on Dec 15 or later and open until Feb 15th. All of our doe days I still have spotted fawns and does full of milk and nursing due to our deer breeding so late. It isnt just my property either it is everyone around us. I say rifle until Feb 15th then archery until last day of Feb would be perfect.

I hunt Area 7 in st mary parish. Our bow season started Sept 16. Hot, humid and millions of mosquitoes aint my or anyone I know, idea of a good time. Our gun season starts Oct 15 or so. Again, its hot and humid and buggy for at least a month. And out gun season ends Dec 31 while bow season ended Jan 15. Literally a mile across the Atchafalaya river is area 9. Their gun season goes from around Nov 20 - Jan 20 and bow extends until at least the end of January. We been pleading with the folks in baton rouge to be more like Area 9. Give me less days but better conditions 100% of the time.
