Thinking this early they were headed to water. Came from oak stand. Unfortunately I walked right thru oak stand. Probably why they caught my scent from boots. I even srpayed bottoms

Brown is down tonight I guess. Sooner the better. I hate night tracking. I am usually a morning hunter. Have all day to track and dress.

This lot is an acorn Paradise for deer. Problem is acorns dropping everywhere. Deer just wander randomly and eat. They do focus on white oaks though. The lot is 60 percent red oak from forester survey.

I'm not doing mornings until the rut I find it too counter productive, I always jump deer on the way in

Need the venison to offset the cholorestorol?. We raise chickens for eggs so I eat 4-5 scrambled eggs for breakfast pretty much each day. Good thing g they changed the whole colorestrol is bad for you thing.

Anyone ever shot straight down at a deer? I have had a never of deer right at base of tree but wait for a better shot. I guess can probably spine it but if you miss at best single lung and double broad side better. Patience is the key. I thought about first night hunt where I missed the deer and it's typical first shot jitters of season for me. Last three seasons in a row I had shot on first or second day of hunting and missed all three. Still by season end had 3 or 4

Black bear at 30 few days ago. I really could use a nice skin for the bed. I forgot when does season open for bear?

Really glad I saw the does family. Three mom's and three yearlings. Haven't seen in camera picks before. Maybe my coyote trapping is working.

Many deer not good for timber though. I have had forester pushing me for timber harvest but he wants A lot ok the red oak. Ironically white oak is a low value harvest tree. Not sure. Any one have experience with post timber harvest deer. Activity?

When I first started hunting this lot I literally saw more coyotes then deer first season. Now bear has moved in though. That's new. They still sell those 3 foot giant bear traps I see in the old black and white films? Haha sadly due to policital correctness etc. I have to clearly state only kidding.

In my experience the deer like the fresh growth when the trees are down. They also like the leaves that they couldn't get to either. Gl tonight
