Major Changes On A Hunting Property, Can You Do Too Much? #deerhunting #hunting
On this week's episode of Midwest Whitetail we kick things off with Zach Rozmus who takes a trip down memory lane on one of his favorite permission farms in recent memory. Even though he mainly hunts Area 52 and the Goat Hills in present day, Zach got his start on permission like many of us bowhunters and through that experience as well as his career has established an understanding on how change can have a huge impact on wildlife. With this year's big project on Area 52 being the pond transformation, Zach updates us on the successes and problems he is facing with the pond as the project comes to fruition. The @monsterbuck Multi Year Blend is blossoming well and only time will tell if the giant buck Pretzel shows up once again this season. With that change on Area 52, Zach highlights his strategy for using a low impact method of changing your farm in the first two years of ownership and how that strategy can pay off huge dividends in the long run. Much like Zach a few years ago, Nolan Redeker is undertaking the same type of low impact strategy moving into the first year on his new farm. Choosing to only widen a few food plots in order to help the farm hold deer throughout the upcoming season despite having huge list or changes to make that include TSI and adding grain to the farm, Nolan and Zach discussed how waiting can help Nolan understand what changes he should make for wildlife after hunting the farm for a season and how using the strategy of waiting may lower the impact on the farm as a whole.

That's awesome to hear Stephen, what kind of improvements have you done to your property? Have you noticed any changes that altered the deer on your property in a negative way? We appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment. All of us here take a lot of pride in the sweat equity that goes into the properties that we get to spend that beloved time on in the fall. We can totally relate to the love of the work. Best of luck this season and we hope that you enjoyed the episode!

We appreciate the support Robert! It's definitely a big undertaking but specifically the way Zach utilized a portion of space on his farm that he wasn't getting any use out of makes it an even bigger success. Get that pond in the ground sir! We look forward to seeing the project come to life!
Another great episode! Absolutely love watching Zach and Nolan’s hard work paying off and coming to life!! Going to be fun watching these two punch some tags this season!!!

We feel exactly the same Chad! Both Nolan and Zach work extremely hard all summer long for the reward of what comes in the fall and on top of that it's awesome to see there communications when it comes to land management and the process that comes along with that. We appreciate you taking the time to watch and best of luck this season!
Love the takes Zach & Nolan! Definitely love the improve all aspects of the land approach Zach… the deer hunting just evolves with it. Great stuff guys!
Nice updates on both places. I can't help but let my mind wander to the fall and both of you guys will be sitting behind some nice bucks taken on your own ground. I am sure that will be a gratifying feeling! Can't wait to follow along

Very nice episode. Never quit or back down on improving your land to tdkecitvto all new levels!!!
Double clicked the fast forward twice and still haven’t got to the video yet. When did Midwest get so into commercials?
You only get one first year. Year one for me is a million cameras in every concevable location. Then it is about what you learned from your observations and camera info. You need to know what your census is what you are happy with and what could be better. Year two is always work on the negatives. Year 3 for me is reevaluate year 2 compared to year one and then gradually add improvements. I have never been disappointed with my properties where i have done that. I am not shy with a chainsaw but i always cut about 1/2 -1/3 of what i think i need too and test the results. You cant uncut a tree. You also can make foodplots bigger each year till you reach optimal size. The #1 mistake i have seen people make is too big plots. You can make plots nocturnal or so big they become unhuntable. Pretty good advice in this video
Great video
Put cha a box blind on the far end of the pond. Problem solved
Working on my property like crazy as well. They are small properties in Michigan, it's just hard no matter what I do the neighbors whack and stack and I rarely see a buck get to 3 years old. I started my own KZread Channel youtube.com/@instinctoutdoors?si=ITp_q9B5KnVIdTT4 and started making videos after watching so many of yours. It is very rewarding. Keep it up!!
