Not a single mature buck lives on our farm and my cams aren’t showing big deer moving and especially not in daylight. I like the 2nd week of NOV so I’ll get some stands up I’ve had laying around a couple years (finally-AMEN). If I had a shooter bedding somewhere, well, that would alter my...
I’ll go with my first impression. Fully mature shooters always make an impression on me. If he doesn’t do that and I have to second guess, I’ll wait for one that does or shoot a doe instead.
Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed listening. I’d also be interested to see how you (or others) set up farms to provide for the needs of your deer herd year around.
The first time I bow-hunted the rut, I could not believe my eyes. “Where are all these bucks coming from? I never see them.” That was over 25 years ago but I remember thinking that like it was just yesterday.
Honestly, I think this proposal would be a near complete disaster for buck age...
I started using (Amazon) Energizer Lithium AA in all of my cams a few months ago. Just starting to realize how incredibly bad and inconsistent these batteries are. I’ll be switching back unless someone can recommend a reliable brand.
I started from scratch 2 years ago with no tillable acres, no equipment and no experience. The dry weather the last two years has proven to be an enormous challenge.
I did get two additional 1/3 acre plots opened up, turned to tillable and no till drilled with alfalfa this year. The deer are...
One day last fall I had a doe walk past my tree and turn downwind into my Ozonics stream. I was familiar with this particular doe and she was known to be freaky cautious. Had she smelled me (human), I believe 100% she would have snorted and turned on the jets. Instead she seemed to notice the...
That’s certainly a possibility and probably all of us have had arrows deflect off of branches that we simply did not see. I can honestly say that has happened to me at least a couple of times over the years. On the other hand, I know people personally that routinely stick arrows in deer...
What’s in the seed bank is never what I want. I’m new at this and I have at least one small piece that I want to put into CIR switch next year. I’ve tilled a fire break around it and plan to burn. I’ll use chemicals if be needed too so long as it’s dirt by winter so I can frost seed. That’s my plan.
