    lol im 25 and I just started hunting this year. Went hunting a few times with my uncle like 10 years ago but thats it. Last few weeks ive been going out all weekend trying to get a buck, and got a blind. Ive been shooting for years so I already have that part down for the most part but its been so much fun learning to hunt. I had a few deer walk right nearby the stand last Sunday but didnt have a clear shot and spooked one away that I might of been able to get by whispering. Hopefully I will get a chance tomorrow, I gotta work on being more quiet, especially when Im in a blind with someone else.

    Yep I always approach mounds and elevated knolls very slowly and cautiously when I’m walking /stalking. I’ll sometimes take 1/2 hour to walk 10 steps if I’m coming upon a suspected elevated buck bed. I’ve pretty much narrowed down my buck bedding areas on our main property.

    I think its been a year now since beginning to watch these videos, also a year since I began to refashion the deer's line of movement on my land. I organized the trailcamera videos for the whole year and November I had more bucks come through than at any time I have experienced since owning this land from 1998. Recently I bought the book on mature bucks and am now reading it a second time. I'm getting it. There is so much on KZread to watch, millions of books to read, I will type spending time learning about your experiences was worth my time.

    Your videos are so informative, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and for free! This stuff is so helpful... I'm trying to put into practice so much of what you describe in your videos on my 100 acre property. My biggest challenge is a have a small food plot less than 2 acres that sits right next to my house and the rest of the property is big steep woods (mix of hard and soft woods) and if there is a pattern to buck movements I can't figure it out and I've been at this for 35 years plus. The property has been logged several time over the last 40 years but its been managed for timber not wildlife, I'm addressing that now, as I have the logger aggressively cutting. That should definitely help as the stem count will skyrocket and therefore hold more deer. I'm also going to see if I can create some hinge cut buck bedding this winter as well get the logger to open up enough space for micro food plots as no ag land exists for miles. Next step will be finding a reliable way in to my stands where I don't bump the deer I'm hunting. Thanks again Jeff!

    I hunted a huge buck several years ago on 180 acre lease. I finally found him bedding under eastern cedar trees in an old field batted up against a large hill. He was only about 50 to 70 yards from where I parked the truck. I never hunted there before because I figured that anything close to where we all parked would get bumped when we pulled in and got out.

    Followed your advice about hunting temperature drops in Nov. and killed my nicest 8 point to date. Waiting for the mount now. I had a NICE 10 point on camera. Only showed up once. Checked cameras today and he made it! He's real nice now and there's four others in the same area. I'm catching them either early or late in the evening. All within shooting hours. It's public land there's no way to spot light this area and not many people hunt it. Hopefully I can get this figured out. On Google Earth it looks pretty obvious where they're bedding but one location crosses a pretty busy road and the other is across very seldom traveled dead end road then a decent size creek. Getting exciting now.

    Great content. I hunted quite often when i was young. Then after my time in service and retiring from civilian government service, I started my own business. Got back into the woods last year and this year and hoping to take my first archery buck. I do have a question do you find that deer (buck in particular) travel the same paths coming and going? I know bucks like to travel with the wind to their face, but that can’t be possible all the time. Do they run the same small areas in circle like patterns or do they typically have a different route back to the bedding areas from how they get there.

    Great content, as usual! Thank you. These issues drive me crazy, because I hunt public land river bottoms where the same topography stretches over hundreds of acres. It's Corps of Engineers flood control land in MS that hold water much of the year. Cypress and our version of "buck brush" (some call it "iron brush") so thick that a long shot is 40 yards. Determining where deer bed in these areas has proved almost impossible, because the environment is so consistent. No elevation changes, and very little food. Nothing green this time of year except some briers and dewberry. The only method I've come up with is identifying trails/travel routes.

    You’ve given me a new perspective from everything I’ve watched. Especially for me because I only have public land to hunt and I’m trying to refine my hunting style because my 8yo daughter is wanting to get into it so much. And it’s hard because public land here gets kinda dangerous even with blaze orange. We’re having to get so much further in the woods but getting there is hard because of time restrictions. When the lands open up your in a waiting line to get there. It was one thing when it was just me but when you take a child it’s hard. The old saying about when the sun comes up the shooting starts.

Any info you know about how deer travel, bed and use pine woods from 10ft young pines to mature 40ft pines? I've been after a large 8 point for 2 years and can't pinpoint his bedding area seeing how I think its off my property. Thanks for any help and all the videos!

    I live in upstate NY, in the past 8 years, I've found all the buck beds within 20 yds of the ag district nieghbors back yard, where I hunt/live, lots of woods, lots of ag. Spend all day in the woods, only to see eyeballs in antlers in my back yard in the thick when I'm pulling into the drive after ordering pizza😆

    Total newby question but I located a great bedding area and am wondering do I want to place myself within the smaller bedding area(10acres)or near it out in the open and off the food plot it borders? The patch of timber parallels the food plot and there is no cover beyond that. Hope this make sense, but feel would spook deer if were to try to access the small bedding area.

    Thanks for the great content all year. Getting ready for next season. Had several good bucks and a great one on the flat river bottom property on daylight film in Sep, during pre-rut & the rut, but they vanished right before PA gun season other than a few nighttime pics. I stay out of about 40 acres of ‘sanctuary’ but I’m thinking I need to build some access into that area after winter scouting confirms my suspicions.

  • @Bullbluegill

    Question for you....do you find that the bucks like the more open areas using trees or log as backcover....or thickets with back cover? I know the doe seem to like that thick stuff and bed in groups as i find the circles of beds. the reason I ask is because i have a section of hardwoods. all oaks, some poplar....over the years we have had a ton of oak wilt, many died and blew down. So those areas that had a huge canopy are now bushes, red osier, willow, just thick bushes etc. Obviously those areas are now huge bedding and travel now that it's so thick you can barely walk and the deer just love it. I have an area in that is all oaks mainly, ZERO under growth, just leaves and few trails. There are trails but from observation it's not a day thing, rarely if ever do i see deer moving through that open area. I was thinking about selectively cutting some of those oaks and poplar trees and letting the tops lay, open the canopy and get the raspberries and small poplar regeneration. What is your take on that? I feel like it's a 4 to 5 acre section that really is used very little by deer, any deer for that matter during the day. I literally don't see all that much for rubs, I will see food area rubs, we have plots....but I can say that I never found "buck" areas where you see the typically 4 to 5 bed type rubs. I'm just thinking I can make more area they feel comfortable. We do only fall plots....so our resident summer doe pop is about 3 to 4 families on 150 acres. we do see a big influx around Oct 1 to the 10 of mature bucks, hitting scrapes etc. some become locals, some seem like travelers bedding elsewhere. We have ag all around us, so we are always gonna have some doe, but i wouldn't say we have a lack of bedding, it's marsh, goldenrod, and we have about 50 acres of hardwood mix.

    I always look for Dubliner mock scrapes deer pellet when they go bathroom give u idea how active they are in area find few beds look for near by food source water near by swap if u got snow on ground u find if doe til in heat there be signs in snow.here point when looking for rubs take note which direction those rubs being made from tree to tree.buck will leave several rubs in straight line for example u look at tree found rub on side of tree that facing north then I see other one doing same thing on next tree continue on next one.u may find few scrape along way.he telling were he going .i found pattern of buck rubs in straight line going east. And big scape on ground leaf all moved around only way tell if scape is fresh is there strong odor from it by buck made it maybe if u lucky u see pellets that fresh will have seam coming off it it be soft.if scape was made in snow next to rub by near by tree u may see yellow stain in snow made by buck .i found rubs scape in funnel area and near by small knoll and bedding area over looking fields food source if it get cold or start rain bucks does will go into pines for cover or thick area have good cover even when snow.but when start do that they may leave there beds head to field to eat so warm there body with fuel keep them warm at night

    Hi Jeff I have been reading your books and just getting started on them but I have a lot of doe bedding around are food plots but the doe are only using the beds at night in your experience is that usually because of cover or not having a complete system of habitat

    Definately Justin...complete system, but also a very likely sign that the food has been spooked out due to hunting pressure. For example not only do we not spook out the plots except when we shoot from 150 yards+, but we don't enter this bedding areas until after the season. The bucks are bedding on the 30 acres of cover towards the fringes. Without the daylight food and bedding, there won't be the buck movement during the daylight either.

    I really like and I try to listen too your facts This Year in Michigan I hunted Near Houghton lake Area and I was about 20 yards away from a Marsh as I sat in my tree stand for 3 hours I made the biggest mistake I got out to dip my wicks with Buck lure and turn towards my left and a Doe was 20 yards away but I didn't have my Crossbow with me , It was still tide to my tree stand rope she caught me red handed so I crawl on my knees to retrieve my crossbow and she was gone well what really happened is that she went to my left and came up the middle towards my tree stand ten feet away from me and I still was caught red handed because I was on the next branch dipping my wicks No Doe , So the next day again sitting in my Tree Stand I got down and checked my Camera but I had my Crossbow in My hand this time checked my camera turned to my Right and A doe was bedding 11ft away from me when I started to line her up for a shot she got up her Ass was facing me so I tried shooting her in the neck as I shot towards her neck she put it down and I missed out harvesting another Doe, Well I was Successful this year November 13th I took a Doe at 20yards in my tree Stand and I also too a Button Buck at 35-40 left-handed when I am right-haned my Buddy's couldn't hit the broadside of a barn if it was in front of them. thank you for your tips I really Appreciate everything you share about deer Hunting.

    Hello, in my opinion all access is different and situational. Most guys try to get close to the bedding area to hunt, but not right on it. Perfect scenario would be you get in 50 - 100 yards or so without spooking him...
