Hello , I’m totally with you and it’s what I do as well and I think it’s better and cheaper and I have 142 acres of crops, so that tells people something

What time of year do you cut and start growing

We saw 5 or 6 deer walking down the sidewalk of a very busy 5 lane road in Spokane Wash. they did not have horns. It was 2:30 pm. Do you know why they would have been out at that time of day?

I have always been curious about night vision goggles. I wonder how well they would work for tracking deer after dark or is the magnification too strong for that.

They work well when you have another separate night vision light. We use them hog hunting

Interesting video, I just bought 80 acres and I'm hoping to create 2 or 3 wooded food plots. I'll post a video when I'm done. I just subscribed to your channel.

What do you do to keep deer from using your entrance and egress trails?

My boots, never touch concrete. I put them on when I get to my destinations along with my clothes.

Can I get an email to ask you some personalized advice? My uncles are co owners in a cabin in the upper peninsula of Michigan and I want to improve the hunting in the area

Kent.....great advice, we have successufully done a lot of what you talked about. Thank you for sharing proven techniques. Bob SWWI

Thank you for the advice, I tried tossing out old mattresses like an allyway and no bucks slept on them.

You always see food plots on flat ground, what about a food plot on an incline?

nice video need to tell what is a good food to plant for fall!

I am attempting to do what I call micro Micro food plants. I find spaces in the woods that the sun grows wild plants naturally and I sow that. I ended up with maybe a dozen of these micro, microplots, literal, approximately ten square feet. Is that too small?

Do you do consulting

You plant micros deep in the woods but then need to find a way to be able to cut them? I'm also in NW Wisconsin (Humbird). Pm me if you offer services to walk land. I got a 30 that I've had for 2 years and have already made changes but kinda stuck on where next. Have several good bucks on cam but wasn't able to get close for a variety of reasons.

Hello and thanks for your video. Here in Virginia, I invested in a 30 acre long and flat parcel (shaped like Tennessee), with the only viable (road) access in at the short edge to the east. Archery season started first Sat in Oct, Muzzleloader the first Sat in November. During these two seasons, my son and I saw deer, and together with a work friend bagged three in this time, across about 10 combined sits. However, once gun season started Nov 16, nearby hunt clubs started running their hounds, many of which ran through my parcel. Since that first day of gun and dog season, I have seen no deer during shooting hours on my cameras on that parcel. Deer are completely nocturnal and are not moving during the day until there is literally a dog bumping them. Was this pivot to nocturnal likely the dogs, or could it have simply been repeated hunting pressure from six weeks of still hunting from a limited number of stands and blinds? I'm trying to determine if the local hound hunting is a blessing (because I can position myself with a shotgun when I know they're running dogs) to have a chance at deer that I otherwise would never see), or a curse (because the dogs basically snuffed out what was left of my still hunting chances). Thoughts?

Great video n informative of the Dos n Donts n whst to look out for ! Great Job ! Continued Success 😎🇺🇸 RJ -PA..

What you do is you keep the ladies happy The Big box will come and check them out sooner or later

I've watched big bucks on my trail cams through the summer. People have asked me why I name them all "No Show".

I'll remember this info next year

Like it but grow longer.

Making bedding pockets is a great idea Ken. How big is a pocket? Great points as usual. Merry Christmas!

I'm 6:31 into this. Ahh, maybe you are going to say something in reference to the title ? Or maybe not. Create bedding, plant fall winter food plots.....

What if half your pics are right after dark and some are middle of the night! That's my problem! I have a giant 8 ( 160) class that shows every night other than a random night he won't show! I have had him daylight 1 time at 709 am and 1 time he was at 6am, but usually around 7,8,9 pm he shows and every so often he will be 2-3 am! I figure im on the edge of his core but people and coyotes delay him sometimes!

No such thing as nocturnal bucks, deer eat 5x a day.

Great insight thank you!

I love your content! Thank you!

Don’t be against hunting from the ground . 74 years old and I’ve gotten several nice deer on ground

Out of curiosity, on your gun property, how many hunters are hunting at the same time in what size parcel? Thanks for the videos. I am always thinking about how to improve the property and trying to be more purposeful about which stands I hunt during bow season now.

I hunt leased pine stands in central Arkansas. The brush is thick except in new clear cuts. There is dense cover everywhere and not much area for food plots. A few trenches with hardwoods that product mass nuts. Food plots are mostly winter wheat 🌾 or rye grasses. I plan to start hunt more from a climbing stand and abandoning my nice box stands to try to ambush the deer 🦌 on heavier used trails cutting through the thicker bush and thickets. I feel by mid season all the deer are traveling 50-150 yards by my stands. I’m spending hours, days in stands and seeing nothing.

I see all the deer 🦌 in velvet in August that hunters around me are harvesting in the fall. I go through a lot of corn 🌽.

In central Arkansas where most high yield deer leases are located there are only pine plantations. The soil is clay and rock because pines don’t need quality soil to grow. Plowing is impossible. There are mainly thick undergrowth consisting mainly of briar and scrub brush. Where I brush hog I am seeing some natural grass returning and with lime, fertilizer and wild food blends and clover 🍀 I do get some growth. Most other hunter use winter wheat and rye.

Pine stands and briers makeup 90 percent of my hunting lease.

What is your opinion on how close your vehicle is to your hunting stand. I usually hike 150-400 yards from my vehicle to my stand trying to minimize sound, sight and smell of the vehicle at my hunting location. Others drive right to their stands and shoot deer 🦌 as much or more than I do. I have seen deer 🦌 that rarely respond to a vehicle but where they immediately bolt when they see you exit the vehicle or are walking through the woods.

I bought a DR brush mower and really opened up my dense hunting spots. Now I see that I may have over done a bit. I’ll make a few adjustments you’ve covered and I think I’ll start seeing more deer 🦌. In central Arkansas you can brush cut an area and after a few spring rains it is a jungle again, so I should be able to allow some new growth to accomplish two things. One, redirect my paths to be less straight and two, allow the rest to grow into good browsing.

I setup a tripod stand with canopy cover between my two box stands hoping to catch deer traveling between the two feeders. That worked pretty well last year and early season this year but I also baited that location. I now believe that might be a mistake. It is a good travel route location between the two box stands but there are some oaks with acorns nearby and very thick cover on one side with a creek valley on the other. I plan to hunt it next season without bait but maintaining the shooting lanes and the open area that I brush hog to try and ambush the deer traveling the trails between the two feeders as originally planned.

I hunt on a lease in central Arkansas. I’ve been on this lease now for 10 years. The first 3 years I harvest two nice mature buck. Since then I only see 3 year olds or less. I’ve significantly developed my area which is in a pine stand which is now 27 years old and was thinned 7 years ago. Having now viewed a few of your videos, I feel that I over hunt my location, are not as wind concerned as I should be and may even be right in the middle of a very extensive bedding area. My area this season produced a nice doe and buck. I harvested the doe during early archery season with a crossbow but missed my buck the opening day of alternative weapons season. I have 3 stands that are 200-400 yards apart, all are that distance or less from our deer camp. I could go on but suffice it to say that human interference is a major reason I’m seeing less deer 🦌 and only younger deer 🦌. We due hunt over bait which I use feeders. I’m basically now feeding deer 🦌 20-30 bags of corn a year and coming away with 1-2 deer in return. Spending 100 hours plus in stands and seeing very little to show for the effort. It’s time to change things up.

I’ve developed my stand locations into mini golf courses. They look great but by late October during archery 🏹 season I stop seeing deer 🦌. Some reasons are my scent but hunting pressure is on the increase. I plan to try to start hunting more on the edge of my ares stands and spend less time in those stands where I spend a lot of time viewing birds, rabbits 🐇, squirrels 🐿️ or nothing at all.

Planning on a late season hunt in Alabama on a WMA with my brother. I’m grabbing my climber, a stool for ground sits and getting back to the basics. Thanks 🙏🏻

I’ve been hunting now for 15 years. At 67 I’m limited some but I have made all the mistakes. You’re never too old to learn a better way. Thanks and God bless.

Agreed. Loggers cutting trees and pulling logs out shoot a lot of big bucks! Farmers in tractors shoot a lot of big bucks! But it might be better to Ninja in…Ninja out. All the outfitters I’ve been lucky enough to hunt with I was taken to the stand sites with a atv or utv. Swirling winds are fun and when you start getting more and more domestic dogs on cam the bigger bucks leave!! Good job.

Good info. While must hunters know about sounds and sents, not enough attention is paid to absolutely no movement, especially on ground stands. To test the no movement importance, I once sat against a tree, wide open at the base of forest meadow looking uphill giving the deer all the advantage. I DID NOT move at ALL, from before light for almost 3 hours. A buck came down the trail, I saw him only when I heard him 20 yards away - they are masters at ghosting. As I slowly positioned to shoot, his head was behind a tree but he knew something was different. When he stepped out, I smacked

I got one nice 8 pointer during bow the last weekend of September. It was my first with the crossbow. He was coming off a food source into cover. Then during the second day of gun hunting I shot an older 8 pointer that was the biggest one I ever shot. Really thick antlers. Love your videos.

It's my 1st year deer hunting, I've only gotten 1 deer so far. It's a great first deer for myself & my custom rifle build. He was a 10 point. Almost has 11 but that last point isn't but 3/16" long. I don't think it counts technically? It's actually only deer I've shot this year. I was hoping to fill my doe tags too. Still have little bit of time. Unfortunately I don't have many places to hunt. 2 properties I need to be invited. Other is inlaws property which I can go whenever but it's gotten hammered really hard by their kids & family. So deer went completely nocturnal there. If deer do go nocturnal which would be better to try get a doe late season, morning or evening?? Thanks

Nice lil overview n good content !

Lol lol egg took me a minute to figure out AG .. n his particular accent ! Lol !!

Great job of explaining how to set up Stand sights for people who don’t understand how to set up stands buddy

Have 70 percent eastern red cedar trees on my 10 acres in Ochelata oklahoma, have 2 acre food plot, 1 acre pond, have 5 to 10 does every day, but have small bucks but no mature bucks only at night. any tips for me. do i need to get rid of my eastern red cedars

How does one go about getting the soil's pH tested?
