[@vikingrobot4179]

I’ve been hunting over 30 years. I’ve developed some very successful habits. First is I act like a buck when other hunters are in an area. I get the hell away from them and go up and deep. Also I scan a ridge and a valley and many times if I have a ladder or a climber or natural blind I will run to my spot in hopes of attracting noise for curious deer to come see what I am. In many cases they come running thinking I’m another deer . They’re very social creatures and to their detriment I capitalize on that. I’ve studied deer body language regarding their social skills. It’s hard to sneak up an a bedded buck because he’s not asleep he’s alert always. But I’ve gotten close by moving super slow and quiet. I usually don’t walk/stalk unless the leaves are wet and quiet. When they’re noisy I’ll try to come in as quiet as possible but I would start a run to a ladder in hopes of attracting curious deer. It worked for me many times. I also pay attention to noises and activities of other animals, birds and even bugs because they will alert you to large creatures moving in the woods. Also I’ve noticed something that I would love for wildlife biologists to study and that is the fact that when I’m hunting when the mosquitos are still active it never fails that when I’m straining to listen and pinpoint a noise of a possible deer I always always get a mosquito buzz my freaking ear hole. I think our body puts off a certain hormone or something that attracts mosquitos when we try to increase our sense of hearing. Call me nuts but it’s just one observation I have. I’ve taken many notes from conditions and observations of my hunts for years and think when I’m dead and gone my grandchildren will have some very interesting material to read….especially if they hunt. The thing that really pisses me off as a hunter is baiting deer with corn. They made it legal in north Ga and now everyone does it. It’s really hard as a hunter that hunts many private properties to get deer to leave the neighboring feeders. I just refuse to hunt over bait and it just cheapens the idea of actually hunting when you’re shooting fish in a barrel.

[@P0wderMonkey]

I hunt in North Texas private and public, bow only. I've noticed the bucks never come to my feeders, only doe do.

[@francisconti9085]

Spend enough time in the woods listening & learning instead of expecting, & you learn quick how to follow them, not pressure, & eventually become more aware, respectful, & acknowledging of wildlife..you'll be surprised that you can become "normal" presence..but this takes TIME & being a clearly known, non conflictive presence..deer survive by curiosity & dossier of routine, any change from it is PRESSURE. KNOWN FACTORS & ACTORS are reassuring. I "soft stalk", pass, turn to acknowledge the animal I passed..then move away slowly .. making it not worthwhile for deer to run..if they DON'T have to move, they feel more secure in not drawing their own attention. Bedded deer usually don't get up as other deer pass..act more like a deer or another attentive, non conflictive animal, they will not expose themselves & waste energy unnecessarily. It's a build up process, but gold when you discover their ways & individual routines. When you see wild deer every time you go out, & know who's where & what's going on..& can soft contact as routine..you have it made.. Best thing I ever did for education was follow deer..

Good info

[@jkkpiton8125]

I hunt northern WI which entails national forest public land. The feds didn't like to cut mature stands of forest. In 2019 we had straight line winds that took out thousands of acres in Oconto and Langlade county. Now that they have had to cut to clean up the destruction zone deer numbers are finally increasing and the amount of forage the deer have has increased substantially. Thanks for the info and love these kind of videos.

[@hsbridges]

Thrilled to hear this talk. I am a biologist working to restore bobwhite habitat in South Carolina. The response of deer to habitats managed for wild quail is positive and unmistakable. Screening cover created by diverse herbaceous plant community offers (literally) tons of high quality forage during the growing season and bedding cover year around. That herbaceous plant community depends on sunlight and fire, as you guys pointed out.

Excellent video. I have been hunting on public land for over 40 years. I incorporate the hunting pressure toy advantage through many techniques. I can also say that I have taken deer in some weird places. One that comes to mind is an industrial park. It was a circular wooded area in the middle of a paved circle. It was across from a hunting plantation in SC. The bucks were in there heavy. I went in on a hunch that paid off.

I live in very south alabama and have a 27,000 acre WMA 10 minutes from my house that is bow only except for 4 weekends a year. The entire 4 month bow season I saw only 2 or 3 other hunters and I hunted 3-4 days a week. There's not enough hunters these days for the land to get the attention it needs it would seem

Amazing video. Just when you think your on top of the hunting game there always someone there to say OKAY NOW LETS START OVER AT CLASS 101. Wow. Lol. I’m starting next week to hit some really great state land here in upstate New York that’s sarounded by tons of ag land . This gave me the confidence I needed. Thank you so much. I’m on my second year of food plots and no big deer. The chase is on. Good luck this year.

[@Kurtdog63]

Re-thinking hunting strategies this season. Planted two food plots last year- turnips, radishes, beets and monitored with trail cameras. Plots were lush and green late summer, but throughout the hunting season, they just did not seem to have that much draw for deer. We had a good acorn crop for most of the hunting season so that had an affect. Hunting area is composed of, and surrounded by, small wood lots and large open ag fields of corn and beans which are typically harvested before the rut. My goal this year is to allow food plot locations and edge areas to grow up in tall weeds and simply create areas for deer to travel and hide. The farm was in CRP for two years until last year and the amount of trophy bucks (3 1/2 to 4 1/2) on the property was staggering during those CRP years. Land owner leased the property out to farmer last year, which created a food rich, no place to travel or hide environment. Almost all trophy buck pictures were at night. With CRP cover, I was getting daytime pics of them. Also, as soon as velvet comes off, the bucks just about abandon the salt licks.

[@slugoo6474]

I would watch Jeff Sturgis. Those bucks are on another property in daylight. There is probably tons of does, pushing pressure on the bucks into other property. If you let it grow up you may see less does, but bucks might start using the property in daylight. Remember, daylight bucks are all that matters, consider those night time ones nonexistent. I am no expert but I study Jeff Sturgis’s videos a ton. Heck I don’t even own private land, I am public only. But I sure try to learn for the future!

[@Kurtdog63]

@@slugoo6474 Yes. I have watched a lot of his videos. Lots of good information. If I had to choose food or cover for hunting during the daylight, cover would win. If it is not present, have to create it, or hunt somewhere else. I spent a lot of hours last season hunting public because acorn crop was so good. A lot of action.

[@slugoo6474]

@@Kurtdog63 I wish you luck. What state are you in? In NC we had a massive crop of acorns in 2020. Made hunting public hard with all the food that was everywhere. It feels weird to hope for an acorn drought but that’s easiest to hunt if you find the oaks that are dropping.

[@Kurtdog63]

@@slugoo6474 Kentucky. We are allowed to bait here. If acorns scarce on public, you can hardly buy a deer because they are all hanging close to ag and corn piles on private. I hunt public areas that are hard to get to away from adjacent ag because of the easy access to public land from private.

I told my son when he was young and just started hunting the deer like to go where the people don't go especially once the pressure's on Sometimes it can be a little patch of wood that everybody drives past to go hunting

[@BobF321]

Great controlled study almost exactly what some of figured.Returning to normal within a week is unusual,for those bowhunters who follow a very high pressured gunseason afterwards.I think it often takes a month,until bitter cold in December pushes bucks to forage farther,but still mostly at night. They need to have had cams out on the changes on day movements if much,after gun season.My guess is that the first half hour of light is mostly the only time shootable,after the first few days of heavy gunshooting.Sitting in or near the usual bedding areas may extend that to an hour after light.

This study further backs the many stories of hunters getting big bucks first time in to hunt a stand or setting up in a new location. Being a solo ground hunter the last several seasons, I prefer to be mobile and set up in different spots each time out in ground cover and have had plenty of deer walk by within spitting distance without being busted a majority of the time. I used to stand hunt for years, usually from the same location or small area. As I have gotten older, I've had less interest in dealing with stands in general and have had a lot more close encounters hunting from the ground. I've witnessed countless times deer movement away from another hunter and come directly to me sitting hidden in brush or cover on the ground, and those hunters most likely never knew the deer was even close to them. I can actually give credit to these other hunters for helping me bag my last 4-5 deer on public by spooking them to leave their area to come over to mine.
