You suggested using a red light if needed during access and egress. I've also heard that green light is a good option and that deer don't see green light. Is that true in your experience? Thanks.

This is one of the best tutorials I've seen in over 50 years of hunting. Spending time in the woods is the best way to learn and practice these tactics. Yesterday, I was surrounded by 15 deer for over an hour while hunting a target buck. They were between 20 and 40 yards away and while a couple of the does scented me, they never ID'd me as a threat. Slow, deliberate movements, minimal eye contact, just sitting quietly, you will see and hear so much. For scent control, I store my hunting clothes and boots in an old corn bag with a couple of cups of corn and oats. During the rut, I dab a small amount of doe estrus on my boot soles. I also, rake my path to my stands to minimize noise from leaves or stepping on small branches. Happy Hunting!

Well Done! I have cut trails on my property as well, the deer have made good use of them. I have also cut some trails that intersect perpendicular to the main trails which creates intersections for good stand locations.

Okay. Okay.. Deer listen BUT they watch for QUICK movement. Flickers of light and fast movement. As long as you ONLY MOVE when they have their heads down eating move but very slowly and you can past them and they won’t move or give a shit about you. Friends Calle BS until I sent them the video. 😂😂
@michaelspry55084 күн бұрын
You guys are funny. I read so much about how hard deer are to find. lol. I walk up on and then walk past deer on the ground while carrying a bucket and gun all the time. Would you believe you can walk within 15/ so yards of deer and just walk past them while they do their thing? Be careful I have the video around here somewhere. I was just telling my wife I need to start making them for you guys to see.

I read an article years back that was done by biologist. They said that when they went above 20 feet that they always saw more deer and were detected much less than at lower heights. I've been hunting whitetail since 1980, and attest that it works for me.

@whitetailevolution I've taken several deer while sitting on the ground, but only two during archery season where I wasn't in a blind. I actually took a buck around 4 years ago while just sitting on the ground. However, I found a round depression that covered at least half of my body up, and I had a good background. Actually, if it is raining lightly, I think most hunters would be better off on the ground due to the fact that your scent goes right to the ground on rainy days, and deer don't expect people to be out hunting. I've taken several deer on rainy days during firearms season, but I always try to anchor them right where they stand when it's raining. Raining makes tracking by blood trail all but impossible. I myself am done hunting from an elevated stand at my age. Unless it is an elevated blind with a lot of room to move around.

Know the way to your stand so you can do it in the dark ambiant light will help if you are patient and get in very early so you get your night vision. Never use a light if you can avoid it. I stop at a certain point and make a sound on the leaves with my hand that mimics a squirrel hopping around . If they are bedded down over a rise they hear and relax than I move with other noises like when a rooster crows or a good wind blows or a train in the distance jet overhead. To mask my movement.. Works when the only way into my stand is between bedding sites. Darker the better. Go in early to move in shadow stay out of moonlight. Move painfully slow. Good luck. 🙂

So can we get some public land tips? Where it’s much more difficult to find these locations. When there’s 5k acres of land that doesn’t really have reliable food sources and access is extremely limited. It’s easy when you’re on 40-50acres & you have food plots setup and you can somewhat control where the action is.

i wouldnt say it's easy but it can be easier. and the strategy is the same on public, on private you can personally have more of an influence.

I think I need to find heavier cover. My neighbor to the south decided to clearcut the majority of his 40 acres. He's eliminated travel routes and bedding . (And is asking me where the deer have gone.) I do have a thick 15 acres to my east with good browse. My stand is between that and a 2 acre sanctuary on my property that they like. My food plot is located there as well. I see deer every sit, but its typically a couple of doe / fawn families that live near my land. They haven't been bred, so I'm still hopeful that a buck will follow them in at some point.

I agree with most of what you said but deer can see in 3D but not all that good. On movement and sound detection but are crucial to manage. As a pistol and bow hunter for many years and most of my shots within 25 yards, I learned to 1st get comfortable, clear any leaves/twigs around your spot, etc... and limit your motions. If I'm not behind a blind or obstruction, act like every second a deer somewhere is looking at your directions. I have shot deer as close as 7 yards and even once had a deer jump over my bag and leg while hunting turkeys. The farther the deer is way more movement you can possibly get away with. If the deer is close and alert you can't do anything.

Good advice, especially about limiting movement!

Using a phone did cost me a nice deer the past season. It wasn’t totally my fault, as that’s the only mean of communication between me, and my hunting partner who was late to come in that day. So he said he would be there in about an hour. After 1,1/2 hour, I got a text from he that he arrived. It wasn’t necessary for him to send me that 2nd text as I knew he would be coming. Make it short, as I was answering his text, a nice sized deer was already in front of me guessing was pushed by him coming in. By the time I grabbed the gun, it busted me and took off. Although I didn’t have to answer him right away, but he’s an elderly friend with health issues. My phone is always on vibrate, except I did an emergency bypass for his number in case he needs me. I don’t regret answering him, but that’s what happens when I’m not paying attention to surrounding. --> on sitting all day, I have done it and you’re right on food and drinks. I double pack everything just in case. Good points made here in this video 👍

I was out before light one morning and saw five doe about 60 yards away from me in the open field, and every time they bowed their head to eat I would take steps out to my spot, and then I proceeded to set up my burlap sheet on some trees by a ridge bank, it was like I was invisible when they had their heads on the ground. Had a spike walk a foot away for me smelled my foot and just thought I was a shrub. Good experience on that. And got a chance to see the tallest 4 point shield rack of my life.

No not a spike it's once a cow horn always a cow horn. Almost every buck starts out as a spike. Cow horn and spike are 2 way different things. A cow horn is a buck with main beams with no tines I've killed a many 2-3 yo bucks with slick main beams

From what I can see on my cameras the bucks are all moving late evening(past shooting light) and very very early morning(1-2am) each picture I seem like there is a doe with em but never in same frame always a few mins ahead of my bucks. Whats your suggestion. I have 2 stands and a blind up right now blind is looking right into their bedding between bedding and food source(cut corn field) 1 stand is looking down a slight ridge into a known bedding area and other stand is facing a v in the trail next to a hay field(getting a lot of pictures outta this stand but also have a urine dripper VERY close to this stand but not right on me maybe 60 yards away.
