3 Best 10 Acre Deer Habitat Setups

[@electriccompany7916]

After 3 years of hard work on 7 acres shot a 160" 11 point, have been using all of the tips from these videos. The most fun I've been having hunting has been seeing the progression of the land and herd.

[@brentonrickett1638]

Hardwoods, open field or mixture of both?

Maybe I’m crazy, but I think it’s as much fun working my land, driving my tractor and running a chainsaw; as it is hunting.

Thanks Jeff, I have 24 acres with some great surrounding property. I'm so encouraged and have begun managing my property due to your wisdom, sincerity, and great lessons you give with every video you put out. I've hunted whitetails for 38 years, since I was 13. Harvested upwards of 75 deer, and I've been more excited about bow hunting now since I've been watching your videos than I think I have ever been. You are such a great and enthusiastic teacher! Thank you Jeff, I'm so inspired to turn my meat harvest into an exciting year long adventure!

[@groundpounder24365]

Your videos in my opinion are some of the most knowledgeable and USEFUL tips and tricks around. I harvested my 132" 8point on my 15 acre parcel. Thanks jeff greetings from muskegon county Michigan

[@richarddean3154]

Thank you very much for a video of this nature. Our home is on a 7.34 acre parcel and I have killed two does on it since we moved here after retiring from the Army. This information certainly helps with management efforts and ideas. You are a blessing to many people.

[@markheidema3699]

My brother and I have been following you Jeff since the early 2000's. You recommended Rye back then and we tried it on our 13 wooded acres near Battle Creek. It works! The deer are drawn to it like a magnet. I like to add some Dwarf Essex Rape with it and at times, the deer will selectively eat the Rape out of the plots. Rye is so easy to grow on almost any ground and is inexpensive for the landowner. Enjoy seeing your videos on small parcels Jeff!

[@Spudd74]

I think you were reading my mind. I just bought a house with 13 acres. I’ve been trying to figure out how to set it up for hunting. I’ve got a lot of work ahead of me, but I’m excited to start. Thanks for video!,,

Another great video. We moved from NE Wisconsin down to Southern Illinois, which is actually farther south than the North tip of Kentucky. Here we are December 28th, 2021 and they are still pounding my clover plots. Of course I do the same as you I plant wintergreen's like winter rye, wheat and oats alongside my clovers and at least down here in this Mid-South climate that gets us through the entire hunting season. Keep up the great work thanks man

[@stark_outdoors]

I have 15 acres, 3 of that is my parents yard lol, 5 is ag field planted to food plot. November 15th I had 6 mature bucks on my land. We are surrounded by heavy pressure in northwest Ohio and your strategies just work, period. You dont need much land if you give them food cover and dont pressure your plots. Thanks for making me a better hunter. The only problem with your strategies I have is that I tagged out really early and miss sitting in the tree stand lol

[@user-kh8bp6ue8y]

I've always loved the attention you give to small parcels. We live and hunt on 10 acres butted up to a few acres of Corp property, and your advice has drastically improved our herd and harvests. In my area, not a lot of bucks getucg over 100 inches and I've gotten two 120 classes and the 12 pointer this year I believe will hit 130+, so thank you for all of your advice!

I have rye growing in the hardwoods as well. The 1 acre food plot is feeding many deer and the deer are feeding in the hardwoods on rye as well. Rye grain is the single best hunting food plot I've ever witnessed. Thank You Jeff.

Jeff, "long time listener/first-time caller," just wanted to publicly exclaim my appreciation for the valuable information you provide. I applied your "precision hunt" methodology this past season and only hunted when "conditions were right" coupled with your food plot strategies and was able to harvest an early archery doe (10-mins on stand during one of your optimal times to harvest does) then Doubled on 16 Nov with a doe and biggest-bodied buck to-date! 2 hunts, 3 harvests--freezer full, mission complete! Wife, lil' kids & new baby were very happy that Daddy wasn't a slave to Nov (as is typically the case). I'll be employing your 2nd setup discussed in this video as my 10-acre SW MI parcel sets up just like you described. I'm up'ing the stakes this year--be tagged-out 'before' the lead flies! #StayStrong

[@patrickmcdaniel8770]

This video is useful for me because on a map my 140 is all connected but I have an easement rd that separates 9 acres. A wierd 7 acre rectangle that is surrounded 3 sides by nieghbors and a major creek that separates 15 acres. My core farm is 109 with 40 tillable. So that leaves me with 59 acres of core cover. I'm trying to provide as much inner food to draw deer in to core area and out of my edges. Thanks.

I followed the tips on this video the best I could last year added a little cover but mostly focused on Fall/Winter food. This year I got my first buck, 10 point over 200# I rewatch this video several times to give myself ideas on what to do next.

[@jjhoran1273]

Great video Jeff, this is really right up my ally, we have 12.5 acres and are adding 3.5 to it this summer. Not a huge parcel but these videos help so much. I have 3 small plots that held deer for a majority of the season but I noticed this year that once the leaves fall you can see thru the whole property. So they leave to find cover. This years focus is creating as many thick edges as possible using tall shrubs and switchgrass. And cover cover cover. Thanks for the great video sir!

Love the videos!! I used to frequent the old QDMA forum before they shut it down. I appreciated your contribution there too! My father has a small property that is mature timber in the hills of Mississippi surrounded by clear cut. I started plots in the only ground area (about 1 acre total of 15 that can be planted. The neighbors do have plots on the ridge tops and feed stations. He has TONS of bucks on camera early season but then they vanish. Pretty much what you describe is the OPPOSITE of what you want. He has only nocturnal activity and a portion of this is he has too much activity on his parcel. Besides reduction in movement (human scent and activity) on his side what can we do to improve the property? I discussed with him opening the canopy and providing more cover. The deer bed on the side of the hill in the cutovers next door. I don’t think very far from his property but still not on it. I see no reason why the deer would prefer his property over the neighbors that have a sea of cover and browse as well as are feeding with corn and bran and have some plots.

Deer also bed on the opposite opposite corner of the woods. Maybe they are going in there at night or maybe they hear me coming in the because I have to walk threw 40 acres of corn feild to get there and it is kinda loud. So I quite going back there should I go back once the corn is cut? Do I sit on the edge or in the middle of the woods where there is the tracks of them walking thru.

Can you point me in the right direction for planting the rye food plot you mentioned in this video? If you have an informational video on this I'm interested. Thanks in advance.

Thank you Jeff. I used your cold front strategy this year and got a nice 9 point on Nov. 1st. I also got a large doe on Dec. 31st by using your different stands for day and evening hunts. I lease 24 acres in Upper South Carolina. Can you help us with a schedule for planting plots? Our first frost is a lot later than yours. You start your plantings in August. When should we start ours. Will the same plots work here? There is not very much Ag near me, just natural browse. Congrats on your families successful year., Much Respect Dennis (USN Retired-28 yrs.)

I know this is a 2 yr old video but I have a 20 acre parcel that I also live on, in southeast Michigan, Wayne county. I don't have much money to start a food plot, and also don't have the access to get machines in there to prepare the land. The portion we don't live on and don't maintain is 14 acres of woods. My question for you is how would you manage this area to hold doe and big mature bucks? I know you usually charge for this info but I would like to hold deer on my property. I only have one way in and one way out of my spot and I use as much scent control as possible but as you know that only goes so far. I am surrounded by about 150 acres of woods, and would like to know how to keep them as close to my 14 acres as possible. I'm about 80% sure I know where they are bedding and my property is a main travel corridor to one of their main food sources, mainly because I live next to land that is owned by a radio station and is fenced in so they stay as close to the fence line as possible. There are only 4 maybe 5 people that hunt the 150 acres around me, one of them being my next door neighbor. Just looking for cheap, cost-effective ways to manage my land to hold big mature bucks. Any advice you have will be greatly appreciated. You probably won't even see this but if you do your advice will be very welcome!

So i have a 5 acre parcel. About 1/2 acre we built our new home on and the rest is down a ravine that we occasionally see deer move throw the bottom from my back porch. The remaining 4.5 acres is wooded surrounded by other neighbors that have 5-10 acres themselves. So i have a few questions. 1) my septic runs down that ravine and our drain filed is down there with some rye and grass. I suspect the deer are hitting that. Should I establish a small food plot in that area? Open up the canopy some as well? Id like to just go down that ravine and bow hunt. 2). Id also like to setup a target for rifle down that ravine as well. I know I maybe asking to do too much with 4.5 acres but is it possible for me to setup both a target and food plot close by and not spook off deer when im shooting back there? I wouldn’t shoot close to rifle season and probably not before bow season but anytime between then would that still ruin that spot?

What are your suggestions for food in a 25 acre mix of tamarack swamp and cattail marsh?
