Great stuff as always.I can picture a new stand set up already.300 yards off the food,and 300 from bedding.1 of the buck I saw in late season showed back up.I have 1 of his sheds.Let the games begin..

Funnels, funnels, funnels. A heavily traveled deer trail in the middle of open hardwoods can mean nothing. But a forced heavily traveled deer trail in a geographical or man made restriction can mean everything. Good video Jeff. One of my favorite spots is a stand 10 steps off a major creek bend with 40-50 yards of timber that’s pinched by a crop field on the opposite side. I access it by creek and never spook any deer.

You just brought back some deep memories for me. I'm 41 years old and my first job at 15 years old was build those Family Tradition Tree Stands down in Bartow, Florida, working for Damon Furlong. He built that small company into something huge and sold it to the current owner.

Great video Jeff!! I can’t believe how fast the year is going!!!

Thanks Jeff, I just set a stand on the edge of ag and bedding. I plan on accessing after the ag field clears in the mornings.

I think the most difficult thing for me to do is it sort through all the info on the channel to make it apply to my hunts. Hunting on Long Island is like nothing else in the country. We are so packed in here that we don't have the kind of land or access choose the proper wind or entry for a hunt. Most places there is one way in and one way out and we are rarely more than 800 yards from a house. Also, there is ALWAYS pressure. You can rarely pass a public property without at least one other hunter there. I definitely think that makes it WAY more important to apply these lessons for not spooking deer. Love the channel and the info!!!

Thanks Jeff

Great content as always. IMO- difference between most of these shots is a fairly intellectual exercise (with a deer caliber rifle). I’d be comfortable with most of those in most situations, but probably sticking with double lung (maybe cheat down toward heart depending on shot difficulty) just to save the most meat. Don’t mind a short blood trail. But as you indicated if I’m on a fence line or something like that where I can’t afford for it to run 30 yards, probably going high shoulder.

[@connorkropp6017]

Thanks for all the great content Jeff! I’ve learned to much about deer and wildlife habitat!!!

great advice for blind placements. Way out here in far west borderland Texas it is a bit different, but the principles are the same I’d say. Terrell County, TX. We definitely try to avoid bedding areas and set up our box blinds along edge type places. But it’s the desert or semi-arid at least and it’s plateau and canyon topography. It’s so much fun to hunt and I love it but I haven’t hunted woods in 20 years so I think I forgot, haha. Anyways yah the principles definitely apply. Edge, avoiding beddings, usually further back in the canyons. Also cougars are further back in canyons too so… yah. 😅 Good luck out there everybody.

I love this channel.

[@nascar3003]

Been watching your videos for years, have learned so much. But I just realized how much you and Fit Finlay look alike! It’s crazy!

[@seandunsey6146]

Down wind of a known bedding area great advise

[@acanuck3267]

Im not much of a focused WT hunter. Infact i dont stand hunt either. Im an elk guy, but i love your content. Theres lots of nuggets I take from your channel and use elk hunting. Animals are animals and they all have similar habits.

[@skeegets2]

Blinds in the middle of a field or food plot has become the norm here in southern Illinois. Its pretty impressive. Lots of money thrown out there but not many more bug deer on the wall because if it.

Hi Jeff! I had a quick question about bedding areas because it seems wherever we hunt we push out deer. Our property is pretty much a hill top with a flat and then a ridge on both sides. Well we usually hunt the sides deep in the woods and there isn’t much tooography change. Can deer bed in 6-8 different spots per 100 acres and probably 80 of that being woods?
