This time of year i would be looking for sign where deer are hitting the acorns or apples or beechnuts. I would def try to find some white oaks that are dropping now and setup somewhere near them on a trail leading from a bedding area. Look for good tracks trails or droppings. I hope this helps and good luck!!!

if you are hunting an area with a lot of pressure try to hang in for the long haul. Many hunters hit a morning watch and then go out for lunch and back in for an evening watch. try to use them to your advantage. be in the woods when they are moving.

If you are on State land try to access the most inaccessible area and the areas the others won't go. On of the best buck I took on state land was in a swamp with little islands in there. It was wet and knee hgh boots were a minimum. Many days I wore my chest waders. The guys wouldn't go in there but the deer did.

      Guys,
       
      I make and sell taxidermy pedestals made from a special reclaimed hemlock. This reclaimed wood is very unique showing a lot of grains and knots that give the pedestals a one of a kind look. If anyone is interested in purchasing a pedestal please give me a call or shoot me an email. 
      Thank You,

      Kind of cool, looking back through last fall's archived trail cam shots. Back in November, I got a text from a hunting buddy saying a landowner saw a buck standing in the middle of the road in the sunlight, around 10 am. Obviously, in love. Luckily, I had a trail cam on a zip-tied overhanging branch not far away. So I drove there, pulled the card, and sent a photo of the buck to the landowner. He ID'ed it and said it was the buck...5 point, no brow tines, tips of tines broken from fighting already. That buck hit that scrape no more than 10 minutes after it crossed the road. I never got a photo of the buck before or since. To me it shows as the rut progresses, bucks get the urge to move more and more in the daylight and ...late morning is potentially as good as early morning on the stand when they are on their feet.

      Junkyard, roman-nosed buck pesters an 8 pt. until he gets driven off. He will have nasty attitude next year with real antlers. I pity some of the other bucks in the group. He's going to drive them crazy.

      Hello everyone! 
      This past weekend, I was in the woods doing a little walking around with another hunting buddy, and stumbled upon a Massive Rub. (take a look at the pic). During the early and mid bow season, i snapped about 300 pictures of various 4 pters, 6 ptrs, and 2 really impressive 8 ptrs. (see second pic). So far this gun season, we have taken 3 small bucks (2 spikes, and 1 4 ptr)  off the property. (new hunters wanted their first deer, i know i know let em grow....) The other big deer are NO WHERE to be seen. MY guess is that this rub that i found is from the big boy, and he is pushing everything else off the property. 
      The rub is located in a Hard-to-get-to spot deep in the woods overlooking a tight funnel, with a stream about 200 yards away. 
       
      My question is: How do I go about finding this guy? what are some of your tactics in getting him to show up? I've been in the woods every weekend for the past 8 weeks, and havent confirmed seeing him except on the camera in August. The third pic is right in front of where the rub is. Just passed the first row of trees, is a stream that runs through the border of my property. 
      HELP PLEASE!
