Hello Bill. Your comments about the knowledge and lore we grew up with, really struck a chord with me. I started hunting whitetails in 1966 with my father and uncles in the swamps of Jackson County WI. The stories and knowledge they passed on to me helped but may have led me in the wrong direction. I learned by walking and reading the land as you have. Whitetails are mysterious and I agree that putting yourself in a position where they exit and enter works. Looking for funnels are great spots for tree stands. Putting out ground blinds in the spring/ summer makes them invisible to the deer. Shot last years buck at 10 yds and they had no clue I was there. Not running an atv and being very careful on entering and exiting the property is gold. I really enjoy your conversations with your daughter. Keep up the good work.

Jordan, regarding your pants issues: you will have to buy men's sizes, but buy Propper brand BDU ripstop trousers. They have pull tabs on each side to cinch the waist tight, or you can use a belt. Light enough to wear all summer with the legs bloused in the boot tops to keep out ticks, and in hunting season just wear whatever base layers you need under them to keep warm. I have lots of multiflora rose to walk thru & they hold up pretty well. Dont buy any other brand the quality isn't all that good as most of the BDUs are now made for the "surplus" market & the quality isn't all that great.

I still love big rubs BUT I really get excited about big tracks near them and how far up the tree the tines are hitting. Yes, small bucks will rub an existing big rub but I’d lean to at least a mature if not one with an attitude doing the initial tree damage. Also, I usually see these rubs in areas where I know a big buck frequents along with all the other sign that lets me know something interesting is going on. All pieces of the puzzle. Post season scouting is my second fav time of the year add in a few found sheds and you’ve got yourself a party. I believe the comment was from the late 80’s Midwest Whitetail days. ??

Lol Bill I too remember the days that rub size was a big thing. Now I look at the height of a rub as somewhat of an indicator of the age of the buck using it.

We need to hunt it, but it is right below two big bedding areas and up the draw from a primary feeding area. It would be an awesome spot for an afternoon or morning hunt during the rut, but sneaking out would be tough following an afternoon hunt. Well, last year it wouldn't have been because the deer never left the timber with all the acorns. If I had it to do again, I would have hunted it last year given how easy it would have been to sneak out through that standing cornfield in the bottom that the deer weren't using.

You are right Bill, a lot of mis information out there that trends the typical hunter's way of hunting. I guess, I'm just not that typical hunter. I use trail cams for inventory prior to my limited bowhunting season, not for patterning deer. I do this on purpose as I really enjoy the chase and the anticipation of that chase and all the unknowns this type of hunting entails. I tend to place cameras in pinch points pre my hunt, review the photos the day before my first hunt and hunt the pinch spots I know preferred deer travel especially during the pre rut and the rut. While I have shot some decent bucks, truth be told, I have never shot "the big one" that I got on camera, or hunted a specific buck but I have seen them on the hoof, and and I like it this way. To each his own. To me whatever it takes to keep hunting interesting, exciting and fun like when I was a kid, the better. Regardless of what information used or style of hunting, I say dream big!!
@bill-winke7 ай бұрын
I agree 100%. I normally only know which part of the property a shooter buck is living in and little more than that. Sometimes I can get a feel for his bedding areas based on the direction he approaches the cameras, but I don't want to know too much because I still want to be excited and surprised when he shows up. But I have had good luck shooting the bucks I am after hunting that way. However, and this is the great equalizer, I can hunt 50 straight days too if I want to. That makes a huge difference. Good luck.

Thanks good video Bill .Also the MSU Deer Lab TV just put a new Buck bedding / Rut timing study out that very much throws in the face of what most think bucks bed like and specifically what hunters think of as same spot / bedding .

Good watch as it will change the reasonings and what hunters think they are hunting as beds or bedding areas.

I saw that but there are many variables that will skew their results. Age being one of them. I am going to get some cell cameras and do my own study this fall. I bet I find different results. Again age is a huge factor in buck behavior as older bucks act way different from younger bucks.

Midwest whitetails intro like everyone else said? lol I think height of rub does have to do with age. As long as it's not a tree they can bend and they're standing level or lower. Really high rubs, in those situations, have to be taller body and/or large rack. Of course really big bucks don't have to rub high, but little bucks just can't. When the top of the rub is chin high, there's a good one around (or you have elk lol). That water hole looks ultra prime! Did you guys ever get a sit over it?

Still up in the air. Jordan doesn't care what she shoots so we will play be ear. She is probably only going to hunt in Oct as she hates cold weather so whichever decent buck is most killable in October will be hers.
