How To Bowhunt Big Bucks In The Morning

[@TheIceman101]

That's good stuff I have adjusted my tactics over the last 36 years of bowhunting. I harvested a buck on October 14th of this year and it was 74 degrees and I sat up just outside a staging area because i knew he was coming to that area every 3 days and waiting just before dark to come out in the plot but this time, I sat a dripper with my dragging estrus in it the day before. I usually sat it up just before the pre rut but I decided to try it 13 days earlier. Well it worked like a charm, he came in at 5:40 pm and gave me a 23 yard shot. I do believe he came in from being more curious then thinking it was a hot doe. Awesome hunt thou.

[@stark_outdoors]

Your videos have helped me so much. I am a football coach and have a 1 year old son so this time of year is really hard to get out to the stand, but because of videos like this I took advantage of one free morning I had and filled the freezer with a nice doe. You have made the entire of process of managing property as well as hunting tactics very easy to understand. Thank you for all that you do.

[@granthenderson2146]

Jeff you produce the best whitetail buck strategy content out there. Always enjoy watching it. Can't wait to see the notification saying Diane shot one of those big shooters. Seeing the success of our loved ones is probably the highest amount of enjoyment we can experience.

[@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751]

Grant...man I appreciate those comments so much! Diane does too ☺️ She said to say that she is really nervous! She is also pumped. She works extremely hard on the lands...knows all of the stands by heart, and which winds she needs. Hopefully all of her hard work will be rewarded soon 👍 Thank you so much and good luck yourself

[@dannyamos5324]

I started writing weather wind barometer and snap in overall temperature down, and comparing it to my trail cameras and was mind blown that some farms I would have target bucks moving before the fronts some during and some after, what I realized were food and bedding availability played alot into when they moved on what farm to prepare for the cold snap, I took that information hung lock ons in transition areas and have had a ton of success and it helped me not add unnecessary pressure to certain areas! great videos keep it up!

I just found your videos at the end of August, but starting after season this year i have already got a huge list of things you have said that i am going to implement to my land. Right now i have a outside in land and thanks to you i finally think i can turn that around. Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos for hunters like myself.

[@kelvin0689]

Anthony, I think you'll be happily surprised what an inside-out property can do for you! We just had new neighbors move in and clear a big brushy field adjacent to a large garden-plot. Now the deer have shifted to our property to bed. Daylight mature buck activity is through the roof now that the deer are coming "in" to bed rather than leaving the property.

Killed my target buck on the 11th. Had him bedded down in a persimmon patch for 6 hours just 50 yards away for 6 hours. He finally got up at 430 and moved around enough to sling an arrow. 30 mph winds and a 30 degree temp drop in east Oklahoma. All thanks to this channel I made sure I took off work to be in the stand.

That's two sits and two deer in the freezer. Talk about success! And I attribute it mainly to what I've learned from Jeff this past year.

Dam - I watched a couple of your fantastic videos this morning. I am 72 years old and avid fisherman and hunter and have had some great success. The thing is that you can always learn if you are of a mind to. I learned a couple things today that are actually a potential game changer for me. You never know "what you don't Know" LOL . I learned a few things that are really "key" to consistent success and I will be employing this new found knowledge to realize even greater success. Thanks so much and keep up the good work!

Awesome video once again Jeff!! My son and I are after a 7 year old 10 point we call Pronghorn. We've watched him grow to magnum status since he was 2 years old. We were so disappointed last year as we had zero cam pics and zero sightings, but all of the sudden, he appeared once again this summer!! We've narrowed down where his bedroom is and just waiting for the right wind and weather, and that looks like Saturday. A huge storm with rain and heavy winds will be cleared by Friday, so Saturday morning looks to be awesome!! Unfortunately, I will be out of town, but my son has a great chance to run into old Pronghorn. Patience, patience, patience...eventually will pay off. Hope you get the chance to harvest the big buck you've been after as well! Happy hunting Jeff!!

Agree 100% with the morning sits and cold fronts. Here in PA they are calling for low of 33 Friday night essentially Saturday morning. We got a to of rain all day Wednesday well into wed night now on Thursday we have a steady high wind up to 30 mph gusts. I’m thinking Saturday morning is gonna be good. One of my favorite stands from which many buck fell over the past 20 or so years is just almost impossible to get into without creating a snort festival. Understand that this is in a heavy agricultural area with medium cover around the stand. I have stopped trying to get in there in the morning from the opener until around Halloween after that I go to this stand for morning sits and hope the buck I’m after is far enough away. Just checked a camera in the rain on Wednesday and have 2 target bucks showing up regularly 730 to 830 am. I am really tempted to get in there Saturday morning providing we get the predicted south west wind or should I stay out?? I should mention that can get into this stand without issue any evening with the right wind but seldom do the target bucks show in shooting light. Any advice??

If I didn't have to get the kids up and to school and the sitters I'd probably take tomorrow off to hunt. The deer movement has been low on my cell trail cameras even at night.

Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge with the Public! I have been following all of your "weather related" videos and a big question is the day of and after a cold front moves through. I know you said to be in the tree the day after with a significant temp drop and rise in pressure. But this next one coming on Thursday, will be windy and overcast the first day. Friday will still have high pressure, but lower winds around 5-6 mph and clear skies. If you only have one day to hunt out of the 2, what would you recommend? Thanks Again!

Definitely no October lull here in central Michigan this year. I've already seen more deer and bigger bucks than I did all of last season hunting. Our tribal season starts in September and ends in February. If anything the deer around here go into a lull later in the season. Trying to get a big six point I've seen in person twice now. He was looking at me both times from 10 yards away so I couldn't get a shot with my compound. Hopefully he slips up going into the rut.

Hi Jeff...man, I hate to break it to you but a very bad idea. For one you want the stagnant, mosquito infested water ..it's natural deer prefer. BUT, I've found any additive including sodium, nutrients, flavoring...turns deer off. Nasty stagnant is best. Do you have rain coming or can you flush it a bit? I would also add soil to it a bit and stir it up to give it a more natural smell and taste.

Others that are dozens per day...mostly does. Wilderness, big woods, ag...all of the above. The habitat changes...the balance of movement...but that's about it. Again, all the same concepts still apply.

@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 ok..... interesting perspective! Thanks for the insight!!!

[@alexcika9906]

Great videos i Love morning hunting , missed a doe about an Hour ago ...ugh it happens i guess 🤔

[@benwatson5012]

Have you ever felt like you've missed out on something? I get that feeling only worse. I mean you have to be sitting in the right spot though ?

[@mr.skeptical3071]

I seen 10 does Tuesday!

[@danpoli5149]

If you only have stands on edges of field, would you hunt it in the morning if it’s near bedding

[@Beasel]

Yes... don't go in dark. Let them feed off field first, then early to midmorning bucks will come and travel parallel to field edge to scent check the does that used trails to go back into cover. You want your scent blowing into field.... there will be a trail parallel to field edge. This is a "rut" cruising trail... to scent check the field

[@plowableostrich6313]

Are there people i can get into contact with to help me read the property I hunt?

[@PowStrokeYz]

What height do you typically set your stands?

[@PowStrokeYz]

I set my stand on a neighbors 30 acre farm yesterday afternoon during the pouring rain over looking a X cross trail. Bucks county, Pa. High winds today 50+ gusts. 25+ gusts tom with a temp drop down to 33 at night. I am hoping sat am sit is a good one.

[@whitetailrealityoutdoors958]

I just love to be out there high value or not. I’m there on the high value as well but not my best stands

[@RickLarsonPermacultureDesigner]

No bucks yet but the doe daytime movement is off the charts compared to the past.

[@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751]

Outstanding to hear Rick...really great temps drops next week for the pre rut...should be some outstanding mornings in there to hunt 🙂 hope you can make it out and start seeing some bucks!

[@RickLarsonPermacultureDesigner]

Man where I hunt your lucky to. See A deer much,less a.bunch. deer. You may hunt all year and never see a deer. The sighn is faint. And its on mountians sides. Tree stands don't do you any good cause looking down a draw they'll see a tree stand easy not like hunting the flats where they dont look,up. I hunt on,the ground. Its tough but rewarding. But for me killing a deer is just icing on the cake. I enjoy walking up a mountian side. Looking off across the valley. Seeing a fox cross my path or a raccoon. Or maybe even and old back bear. Off in the distance. Seeing the coulor in the fall foialage. Watching the sun come up or go down. And if your vigilant with some skill and some luck that old ghost buck suddenly appears out of nowhere. And your heart begins to race you calm your self. And wait till you can raise your bow. Steady yourself patience patience. When he turns broadside and he's in close. You release your arrow. And then the fun is all over draging a big buck back down a mountian side where there are no roads and it gets steep in places is rough work but all the more enjoyable to remember when its all said and done. God bless happy hunting ,,,
