Revealing the Secret to Hunting Nocturnal Bucks
Can we get a video about making fall cover and fall bedding areas please?
You lost me at glyphosate.
There's no such thing as a nocturnal buck
Thank you for the advice
You're right about one thing, for sure. In timber country, ANY greenery will bring them in and fast.
Here, it's definitely food. Pure appalachian timber. Everytime I clear a little and gain some green, the deer are ON it.
WTF A rain event?? It's a fuckin thunderstorm! Don't change shit that isn't necessarily!
Thank for the video, lots of information. I have about 18 - 22 acres with 5 of it swamp/wetland. How do you work with wetland, do you have a video on that? I can see trails with deer using the wetland, but I never see bucks on my property until at night.
How do you deal with no rain in the fall? For the last few years, the rain has turned off in August, so the plots die. That is why I am thinking of going with a clover-chickery perennial plot to plant once.
I've started planted earlier and earlier. I start watching the 10 day forecast in late July and if I see a big rain event coming (2-3 days of forecasted rain) I make sure to plant. The bigger seeds like peas and beans need a lot of water to germinate. Once they germinate, small amounts of precipitation can keep them alive if you're not in an outright drought.
This is one of the most helpful for me out of all I have watched. I Hunt in Maine and these deer here are very skittish! At least more than other places I have hunted. The wind is constantly changing direction on me because I live down wind not far from my Washington. When the wind isn't whipping around I see deer every time I go. But that's very rare.
Glad it was helpful! Good luck!
Lotsa useful detail. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Good luck!
Dude thank you! This is gold!
Glad it helped!
👍👍👍
I like it.
Thanks!
Public big woods land. Had a nice 9 point on cam since July Shot him 2nd day of season. 180 pounds dressed..
Wow, nice buck! We've had a few over the years pushing that 200# mark. They are not nice to get out of the woods, that's for sure!
Blessing
Any tips on keeping a rifle dry in a stand? It's hard to the rifle out of a bag without spooking the deer ? 🤷♂️
I usually just cover mine with my waxed jacket or a waterproofed piece of camo cloth/burlap👍
I definitely pick a blind with a roof if it's coming down out there but otherwise, I do have a piece of waterproof canvas in my gear that I can drape over the rifle and myself if need be.
Slicker cloth or a garbage bag Be aware of scents that may be off gassing. You can use wax paper or just hunker down over your bow or rifle and spread your coat out over it. It usually doesn’t rain continuously and if it is you really shouldn’t even be out there.
What should you plant if you are competing with neighbors who are big ag farmers (planting corn/beans/soy)?
I have corn, beans, and hay fields near me as well as neighbors who plant clover food plots. I have half of the plot planted in brassicas and the other half planted in peas/beans/oats/rye. I don't plant until August so right now (in the middle of November) my food plot is full of lush green while everyone else around me (neighbors and farmers) have deteriorating food sources.
@ thanks so much for your response. I’m new to hunting, own a small 20 acre parcel and each day that passes by it looks like I’ll be eating tag soup this season. In the meanwhile, I can hear shots all around me so my neighbors are clearly having a blast. It’s tough not to be envious. This is a tough hobby to get into especially if you don’t have any mentors in real life. I’m trying to keep spirits up by planning now for next year, and your videos and your response here are very encouraging. Thanks again.
3 miles? What the hell kind of deer are you talking about
The average GPS tracked buck ranges about 3 miles but that's a broad average depending on terrain and thickness of cover and available food, that can vary a lot.
I agree
What is a good quality fall food?
Anything that is still green and lush during the fall is ideal. Some years that's more difficult to obtain than others. But when all of the other food sources the deer rely on are deteriorating quickly heading into fall, you want to have the young, lush, green food plot that was late planted so the plants are still young and tender.
Great information.
Glad it was helpful!
Common sense video . Great video Ken.
Thanks 👍
Fooled me
Not like this where i hunt
We have a mother bear and 2 cubs been hanging around for 3-4 weeks. Stopped feeding 3 weeks ago. How do I get her gone ? Was getting doe around but not when she came. Does this mean a bad deer week coming ?
Put her in the freezer....
I walked in on a 350# boar right under my stand one year. Got within 10 yards of him because of a small hill between us. Two bucks were shot out of that stand that season. You should be good.
Great job!
Thanks!
I have daytime bucks 4.5 yrs old and nocturnal bucks which arent bucks normally on my propertt does and fawns all summer and thereafter the season changeb
Have a great day Ken!
You too!
Every hunter has a different thing to say. It's always hilarious when this time of the hunting season comes around. The "experts" come out and say when the rut is or when the rut is not. There are a few facts that can help folks get through all this. The gestation period for whitetail deer is approximately 200 days. Factors like the weather temps, moon phase, and population density all have impact on the rut timing. However, the rut is a monthly cycle for deer in North America, white tail deer in particular.
This is almost or is word for word that a video that whitetail habitat solutions put out last week 🤔
Thanks. Guess I won’t need to watch Jeff’s video.
Great information, I agree with everything you say.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the common sense info Ken. Appreciate you bro.
Any time!
That was some good info. My man. We highly appreciate it. GO BLUE
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
Good stuff, thank you! I will be working on improving trails and pinch points now that I have a good understanding of what needs doing. Thank you again for the videos, keep it up.
Glad it was helpful! Best of luck.
Thanks Ken, I don't think you can bring that up enough. People are always learning. Or they should be. Lol. Always try to pick up something, even if I seen it or know about it.😮😊
I know with me, a lot of times I just need to be reminded.
Great points....thanks for sharing. Bob SWWI
Glad it was helpful!
Thank You for this Great Video , I wish You Great Deer Season and a Merry Christmas .
Thank you! You too!
I've had big bucks in the thickest stuff imaginable and would wake up every now and then and stretch and lay back down if you weren't around that area you wouldn't see nothing
I've been out grouse hunting in some really thick stuff and had big bucks let me walk right by them. They sit tighter than the grouse.
Good information Ken. Seeing bucks in the fall during daylight has always been an issue. We harvested 18 acres of aspen last winter and saw an explosion of forbs and trees coming up this summer. Hopefully that will provide some cover to encourage bucks to stay in the fall.
It will definitely add to your habitat. Might need to get in there and cut a couple winding trails to make it more accessible for them if it's super thick. At least until it gets a couple years old and opens up a bit.
I enjoyed this video very much. The reason for the sporadic rutting in the South is caused by many, many years of flooding so the does just come in heat at different times to insure the continuation of the species. FYI, maybe not the norm but I did rattle and grunt an 8 point in on opening day (10/5/24) in S.W. pA and passed on it, and a few years ago we were squirrel hunting in late February and saw a big 6 point chasing does and a known scrape was still being used. Again probably not the norm but crazy things always can happen when it comes to nature.
Deer don’t have horns, they have antlers! Horns don’t shed, antlers do!
Of course but hard antlered doesn't roll off the tongue. Good luck this season!
Hey Ken Liked Your Advise Tell Me Best Fall Food Source
The best fall food source is whatever the deer are attracted to that time of year. It's typically going to be whatever is green and lush that time of year. This is why late planted food plots are great because they're still green when all of the agg. fields have dried out and are being harvested. On public land you'd want to look for anywhere that has a lot of stem count close to the ground. So places where there's been recent logging activity or edges where sunlight can penetrate under the canopy.
Didnt know deer ate eggs regularly

No mention of "The October Lull?" What is your opinion on peak rut? Same time every year (for your place) or different due to weather or moon phase? (I'm a new subscriber, maybe you have covered this...)
It's the same time every year. Weather can still effect movement though regardless of what time of the season it is so I'll definitely be sitting near a food source this PM with that cold front that came through last night.
Science has proven a doe will come into heat at the same time every year within a 7 day period. Weather effects movement but not the rut. "October lull" is just deer switching from summer areas to fall areas it's not like deer go on vacation and move out of the woods for October.
630 pm btw about 45 min before dark
Good video. I shot my first buck in the big woods oct 7th I think he’s 3.5 big body 7pt. Seems like they move in the thickets a little earlier after the first couple cold mornings. My observations.
Congrats!!! Always a good idea to hunt the back side of a cold front, it definitely gets them moving earlier.
I like how you broke the rut down. Pretty dead on. I live in Kansas and I’ve learned over the years to just be a woods man and pay attention to what’s going on. You definitely have the phases down it’s just up to the hunters to figure out daylight movement!!!
Thanks!
The "egg" thing was funny but a little trivia for you.... a deer will not pass up a chance to scarf down a nest of baby birds if they come across one within reach as they forage.
Interesting, I never knew that.
