Hunting the rut

I've been hunting before but never during the rut, any tips?

I just returned guiding my daughter on a deer hunt in the middle of the rut. I can suggest a few things. First and foremost you need to be where the does are. The more time you can spend with them the better off you will be. Bucks have a one track mind during this time and can be found chasing hot does at any time of the day. Early am, noon or evening it doesn't matter. Be ready at all times, they can appear out of nowhere instantly. Did I mention you need to be with does yet? Oh yeah one more suggestion, surround your self with does, preferably ones that are in estrus.
