Finally a podcast/show for southeast deer hunting. Ive found that a lot of deer hunting shows are from guys hunting the midwest or north and some of that stuff just doesn’t seem to apply in the southeast. (Louisiana for me). Great content guys. Thanks.
I like how he stated the evening for more bucks. I have better luck in the morning on horns. I guess each property/area is different. Definitely enjoy the show regarding the south.
All depends on your spot location if you’re closer to feeding area or bedding areas. They move into bedding areas in morning outside of the rut and even during the rut looking for their does.
Best advice I've heard thus far from a real hunter that understands the hunt. I agree 100% with all of his points and topics, well said great video! Thanks for sharing! Hunting CT State Land ❣️🦌🥩
Well as far as public land goes or small parcels surrounded by public i can say anyone killing tons of does BEFORE the rut or before your buck tag is punched is foolish at best....mature bucks are interested in 1 thing in the rut and if you kill 20 does then thats 20 less reasons why the buck wont be there
Deer will pattern you absolutely. With trail cam information 4 weeks into archery season I had to sneak in by foot almost a mile to a ladder stand. I was in the stand 2 1/2 hours before the crack of dawn. I was on a trail about 60 yards from a feeder. Because the neighbors bow hunted about 150 yards away on their property only on weekends this buck would go somewhere else not on my camera all weekend. The rut hadn’t started. I went in on a Wednesday morning,actually in the middle of night basically. He gave me a 24-25 yard perfectly broadside shot. Measured out at 156 2/8ths. It actually took 5 weeks worth of camera work for me to come up with a game plan. I went in on the Sunday before and set up the ladder. There is ranching cattle activity so the deer are used to truck traffic feeding supplements so the ladder stand setup wasn’t really invasive. I’m old school and believe in using the “Scentkiller” brand original and I sprayed everything on and around that ladder stand. I’ve used this for years and have seen some crazy stuff directly down wind from me.
@@ML-ks2lj I know we can’t kill our scent and if any critters come in down wind odds are we are busted. I honestly believe the old original scent killer has helped me kill a lot of deer because it may or must destroy some of our odors. I’ve had some strange very close encounters like under my 8’ tall tripod rubbing on the legs of the tripod. Coyotes peeing on my ladder stand legs 12 feet below me
High noon 12 mid day in the rain I've had much better luck than any other time for big bucks.. I live in an area that's high population of deer I've noticed the moon plays a big part of deer movement.. great video thanks.
We sponsor a youth hunt each year for local hunters 8-15 yrs old. We require they sit with either Dad or Mom. “Shooting houses” work great for getting these new hunters started. Dad or Mom can whisper instructions, errors that would spook deer from an open stand are covered, rainy weather doesn’t spoil the hunt, success is increased, and kids always ask “can we come back next year”?
The moon is what determines daytime deer here, full moon gives daytime pics, new moon has no daytime pics. Cams tell me everything about their movements
I agree with this 100%, y’all’s questions and his info is exactly what lead to me shooting a post rut buck in a hunting club that 3 others had missed with rifles. One had actually missed him that morning on another plot.. I asked if I could “drive through” and hunt the next biggest plot, which was the least pressured atm.. (or I was going to come in the back way) and I got the buck that afternoon. The guy who told me to “drive through” and helped me load it up, walked up to the buck with his dad and said he wanted to cry, so I asked why and he told me he had missed that same buck that morning. P.S. This was before the baiting law and the club didn’t have much browse nor acorns that year either, so the plots were in demand then.
This didn't talk about how deer outsmart hunting pressure. It talked briefly about how they react to a stand site that's been hunted. Where do they go when pressured? How close do they bed to human activity during survival and evasion mode? How close can a hunter get to them before they flee? That's what you need to cover in a video with this title.
Just like the scientists said he basically said no matter how much you know you still got to have some luck and are you comfortable in the stand blah blah blah you know the same old story whitetail deer are smart they will figure you out just like you do them that's why it's the ultimate hunt
The Deer Hunters Prayer: “Dear Lord, to you I pray as I set off into the woods today. Bless my life and help me to be successful. Look over me and always be blissful. Heavenly Father, grant me the wisdom to overcome all obstacles and protect me from those things which I have no control of. May harvesting a deer be quick and true, with respect for the animal and guidance from you. Keep close Lord as I hunt today, look over me and keep me safe. There is no greater God than you, this hunting season is proof.” - AMEN - #Deer #Hunting #Connecticut #StateLand

Thanks man! We are glad you are enjoying the show!

Right now it's 107 degrees where I live in the south. Cold weather and rut seem like a distant dream.
@@Manbunmen65 yep it has been a hot one so far. But fall will be here before we know it!
It's getting colder every morning here in the Ozarks in Arkansas. It's on its way for sure
@@D-earlybird Ouachita - Arkansas. It's coming.
Weather doesn’t determine the rut ..,
@@Paul-q3m7k month of november where i am.

We are glad you enjoyed this clip from the main interview with Dr. Bronson Strickland! Thanks for watching!
Can you explain further on your comment about moon phase playing a “big part”. What are you seeing?
Myself I've had a lot of luck in midday rainy days
I totally agree with info shared here, echo's everything I have learned in 45 years hunting deer and elk.
Very good information. Thanks for sharing.
We are glad you enjoyed this clip! Make sure you check out the full interview for more details on the conversation. Thanks!
Temp controlled and scent controlled shooting houses take woodsmanship right out the window. No pun intended.

Word for word why i dont hunt food

Kill 50 doe? Whaaa
If you’re not scouting, tracking, using a climber and ambushing it’s not really hunting.
Shooting house? We call them deer blinds.
sitting in or near a food plot to kill a buck
is not hunting get out in the woods or swamp thats hunting
Just like humans it's the rutt, butt it's the girls its timing😂
Heard me say that too
Food plot you mean baiting areas
