Bill Winke WILL CHANGE the way you HUNT YOUR FARM

[@matthewowens5992]

I would like to share a story that backs Winke's theory here and uts one on a world class deer. The NYS record non typical buck was shot by my great grandfather Homer Boylan in 1939. My grandfather ran a trap line up the Canaeraga creek and would check his traps every morning before school. This monstrous buck would be bedded in the same spot every day. At first he would jump up and bolt off, then he would jump up and run off a little ways, then he would just stand up, and eventually he wouldn't even get out of his bed and just watch my grandfather check his traps knowing he was harmless. That wound up being his downfall as my great grandfather Homer shot him on the first day of an official gun season ever in NYS, checking traps! Good to see you again Bill!

WOW, thats awesome. Thanks for the cool story!

[@Pwrcritter]

Nice story!

[@kapperoutdoors]

Great video guys enjoyed it. Thanks.

Bill is a humble and a very knowledgeable man, love all his shows n vids.

[@kokadjooutdoors620]

So agree with this. Been managing our family 100 acres. Nephews four wheel I run my dogs and still get lots of daylight deer movement. They get used to humans using land as long as not chasing them they adjust to it

I know it would be a lot of work, but I would enjoy a detailed video about entry and exit strategies on a square 40 acre tract with lots of topography.

I agree 100% with Bill's thinking, and have been doing this on my farm for years now. I bought the farm for my whole family to enjoy, even though the priority at the time of purchase was for deer and turkey hunting. Yet my wife loves to go explore the woods, bird watching, mushroom hunting etc. At first I was even hesitant to go into the woods to do TSI work for fear of chasing the deer away! But as time passed, and the older I got, it became a routine to drive our RTV throughout the farm, and what I discovered is that we were seeing MORE deer, and that they would actually stand and watch us drive by. NOW, the thing to remember when doing this is DO NOT TURN YOUR VEHICLE OFF!!! This is the alarm that will trigger a deer's reaction to flee. The proof is in the pudding as Grant Woods would say, and we have killed many nice deer off of our little 70 acre farm, that we ALL enjoy, from the comfort of our RTV.

One comment, thought, experience, is from my small acerage (20, with adjacent unhunted 100 acre swamp). Guy before me fed the deer and never set foot behind the house. First year saw a bunch of deer come up and check that feed trough. After the dogs and kids took over, never saw that again. Neighbors shot a few of those bucks that must have moved out but the ones that stuck around figured out our pattern. Same with the new fawns and eventually the mature bucks they turned into. They found spots again where they could watch our place and feel safe. Only can hunt back there in specific winds and times but always see deer. And they watch/listen to the yard but that's about it. If they don't hear a door, dog, or kiddo they don't care, up to 50 yards from the house. Theory, the biggest bucks are the ones who don't leave, or more likely they are the only ones that get big. It's not a personality thing or home range thing, it's a human imposed evolution. The ones that find 1 or 2 key spots don't get shot. Find/make those over looked spots or don't hunt a certain spot/area for a few years.

Love the Bill Winke content! This "sanctuary" advice is spot on. Enjoy your land people. You earned it. Even if you are primarily using it as a hunting property, you just need to learn how to adapt and adjust for deer. That's the fun part.

[@highpointlandcompany]

Bill is definitely a big advocate for that. It's a great perspective as well coming from another landowner. Thanks for the support!

[@Jay-hu1pc]

Bill is a book of knowledge. Love all his content. Thanks

[@highpointlandcompany]

There's no doubt about that, thanks for the support!

[@smokeeater8387]

Some of the biggest deer shot on our farm were only about 150 yards tops from the house and barn. One was scored almost 200 inches. They certainly get used to normal activity👍🇺🇸

[@bvsproductions9021]

Keep the great content coming! Im glad i found this channel. Bill has a tremendous amount of knowledge and I look forward to hearing more from him.

[@highpointlandcompany]

Welcome aboard! Thanks for the support!

[@nyleslehnen4751]

If u can get in and out my place is a hill surrounded by fields but it holds giants for that reason / really hard to hunt.

[@seangaul4618]

Great to see Bill back out there with solid content looking like a normal dude, not an advertisement. Welcome back!!

[@jacobhart6923]

I think the biggest thing I took away from this as soon as Bill said it it clicked, "non threatening human activity"...I am going to be able to double the number of places I hunt on my farms after thinking this through.

[@seanbalch7563]

Good to see Winke again! Can’t wait to see the new farm.

[@RushOutdoors]

Great seeing Bill again! You guys have a great idea here! Looking forward to the continued vids.

[@highpointlandcompany]

Thanks for watching! Every Tuesday at 6:30 PM!

[@alexpinnow6509]

Never get tired of listening and learning from Bill!

[@highpointlandcompany]

Us either!

[@tannerknowlton1941]

Keep it coming!

[@highpointlandcompany]

Will do!

[@wesfox1712]

Keep picking Bill's brain and bring that content to us!!

[@highpointlandcompany]

Thanks for watching! We plan on doing just that!

[@ethanstubbs5790]

Awesome video! I'm looking forward to buying my first farm one day. I'll definitely implement any strategy from the man himself!

[@terrydewayne7690]

Great to see winke again.

[@Ricatonniisasavage8854]

For me, Bill Winke is The 🐐 KZbin Hunter. He IS Midwest Whitetail, Midwest Whitetail just isn’t the same and doesn’t have the same aurora without him. Great to see him resurfacing, maybe we can get a Return to Action in front of the Camera in this upcoming 2022 Fall Season for Bill?? 🙏🏻🤔

[@BlueWidow2010]

Bill, good to have you back, mister....

[@ernieforrest7218]

Well wouldnt it be a good idea to post the property with signs stating that the property is a sanctuary. that way every body including the deer, would know its a safe place to be. lol
