I live in ELK county, went down to Pittsburgh last night to shoot five stand with an old marine buddy. On my way home at least a dozen deer crossed the road right in front of me!! They are definitely on the move fattening up for the winter!!
I hunt in north eastern Pennsylvania public land. I have a few bachelor groups of bucks on camera that are completely nocturnal. Any tips or suggestions on what to do to catch them in daylight? Thanks
The best way is to setup on a transition or travel route just off their bedding area, preferably between that and food. A solid feed tree dropping acorns would really be a plus too. The closer you get the better but this also means there’s a chance you could blow them out of the area. It’s a balancing act for sure. This isn’t a bad subject for our next episode.
Hunting in close to bedding is one of the best ways to work against this, but it’s a lot easier to say then do. They are up on their feet during the day but in very isolated spots.

Big time
I don’t understand bow hunters who don’t shoot their bow all year. What’s more fun than sending arrows down range on targets?
Exactly!

@@theeverydaybowhunter Thank you for your response and time! I appreciate it.
No problem.
@@theeverydaybowhunterhonestly this is what we struggle with up here in North Central PA. They are mainly nocturnal except while in the rut!!
