The Hunting Public is an online video series that focuses on relating to all groups of hunters. By hunting in a variety of different situations we will try to teach our viewers different strategies for harvesting game.
I agree with Jim reyser, any day out in the woods is a good day. And I don't think there's any problem with scouting at that time. As long as I don't do it consistently. Everything changes by fall. They get spooked here or there, don't see it as a big deal. You can still learn something, that's what it's all about, learning. You might run into a big fella you didn't know was around. Or something, anything, that might help you in the fall. I just would not make it something you do weekly or even monthly. Better off glassing from a vehicle, or even getting in a tree and glassing for a couple hours. If it's something you're going to do consistently, weekly, or along them lines.

Saw no difference in arrow flight in final bareshaft. Maybe just me? Only way to do this correctly is with a bow press and in this case lean the cam. Results are instantaneous, and you dont have to mess with 6 different kinds of arrows and components. That is assuming your rest is down the middle from the start.

The bur will definitely roll to the flat side of the broad head, so it makes sense to slightly hit the flat side with the sharpener. DUH!

Here in N. Idaho, summer scouting has plus and minus benefits. The big thing is the deer will not be in summer range when we rifle hunt in November, they will be moving toward winter range depending on the weather. Summer scouting get us in shape, see what changes have happened in the public land, learn trails, roads, forest fire effects etc. So it is good overall but not like maybe more agriculture land.

Scout when you can, hunt when you can. Most folks that aren't retired only have a limited time to go. CRP type areas that Zack killed this buck in can be gold mines for success, but can also be a nightmare to track and find your animal after the shot. You can also get lost out in large fields of weeds above your head. Early season spray down or it is going to be death by chigger.

I think the reason most bowhunters worry about "overscouting" during pre-season is that, sure, I'll blow the deer out of this parcel, but they'll be back tomorrow. But if I'm doing it, there's probably eleventeen other guys doing the same thing. Eventually all that human presence _must_ push the deer out of the area right? The answer is....maybe...but you'll never know how much human presence is in an area until you go in there and look for it. Cameras, stands, cigarette butts, empty water bottles, thermacell cartridges, boot tracks...half the time I'm scouting for humans more than I'm scouting for deer!

My nephew and I scouted a new public hunting spot on September 1st a few years ago. Completely walked it out. I knew from scouting there was a good buck in there from the sign. On October 11th my nephew shot a big 12 point in that area.
@danielcarswell1230Күн бұрын
as a dog hunter i can tell you its harder to push bucks from an area than you think. we can run the same spot every weekend and jump the same deer most of the time, including big bucks, until we get the kill. had one we ran every Saturday. jumped same spot but as we learnwd his escape pattern and shut down the spot he would change his route. never did get him that season. if they spook from you and get away it builds their confidence in how good that spot is to detect the threat coming and the ability to get safely away. amd this is in the middle of high pressure hunting

i use summer scouting in a different way maybe. Most of the scouting I do is in season or first snow melt in spring to see all the sign made in the fall. I live in ME and we can't really do much scouting for deer that are totally in summer areas. They move so much from late August to middle to end of Sept that you can be all over deer in mid August only to have them move 3miles away mid Sept. In the summer I will go into places i'd marked in the fall/early spring and pick a tree or setup a stand site knowing i'm not gonna hurt anything 6-8 weeks before the season. We do a little bit of spotting for fun in the summer with the kids after a hot summer day and put out a few cams on fields and crossings to see whats growing in the area however like i said our bucks move so much in that late summer early fall that truly you can have 5-6 quality bucks hitting a clover field together all summer only to lose all but 1 or 2 early fall. We've had bucks in one field all summer before only to have them pop up on cams in late Sept early Oct 5-6 miles away. They really tend to break up and move to primary home areas once the velevt sheds.

we scout in the summer but to be honest, I've gotten to the point in my life to realize it means very little come hunting season. Deer's diet and needs change throughout the course of the year. Scouting in the summer is also , in our area, the time of the year when standing crops are at the best they'll be and top of the deers diet. Come hunting season, those crops change or are even off the fields. I can't count how many years I've gotten giddy and excited in hopes of seeing these big bucks during season and we rarely ever do. Now we normally use cameras to monitor new spots in our bushes, areas that we are thinking of moving stands to.. still fun to do, I won't lie there.

I do literally one day of work on the farm I have permission on. I go in, I change battrees, I swap out cards, I clear anything that is impeding my stands / shooting lanes, and I get out. I'd rather have a general idea of what's in the area and who used the property last year, and be surprised, than be constantly worrying about finding the biggest deer. I learned the really hard way after waiting on two different deer for three years in a row, that never showed, that I need to make decisions based on a couple of rules-of-thumb and not because a deer isn't a specific "target buck". 1) at least 8 points and outside the ears 2) his belly should be AT LEAST in a straight line from the elbow to the knee. If the belly doesn't swing up, he's an older deer. 3) Does before, and after, 10/31--11/14. Those two weeks are buck only. It's made hunting SO much more enjoyable.

If you have areas that u hunt every year and know the lay of the land well enough and have a relatively good fix on how the deer use it sometimes its not as necessary to scout areas like that more than once or twice before season just to see what the sign looks like and to see if the deer are still using it on regular basis, and in the hardwoods i pay attention to the masscrop like acorns to see if there plentiful or far and few between that year

I don't think leaving your scent in an area and not going back to hunt it until a month and hlf two months later is going to effect anything when it comes to spooking deer. A few days or upcoming weeks is a different story but your scent is going to be long gone after month or so later, your scent will be washed away within hours or days depending when it rains next
