walleyeslayer18 Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Alrighty guys and gals im in a dilema. i have two spots that i can go to archery hunt that i know there is a good possibility of pulling a nice buck or a nice doe out of. one of the spots i dont have a stand and i sit on a stump and the ohter spot i have four stands that are pretty perminant. The other night i was at the spot sitting on the stump and i saw a nice doe but didnt have a clear shot so i let it by. and today my dad and i went to the other spot and found huge buck tracks and a lot of doe tracks that are fresh. so i guess my question is, with the weather gunna be cold tomorrow morning and what not where do i go because i think the bucks at both spots come by in the morning?!

Neighbor_guy Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I think you think to much.Play the wind as well as your gut and you will do fine. But mostly play the wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snoozebutton Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 After you've got the wind figured out, which spot has the best eats for them? When the weather turns colder, they need extra food to stay warm. That's where you'll find the does and the bucks will be right behind them.

Deitz Dittrich Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Agree with all the others, play the wind!.. Dont hunt a stand just because you think its better, if you get busted, you could ruin that stand for a while?.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meat-Run Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 My theory is the wind should #1 dictate which stand to sit in and #2 where the food source is, #3 inconjunction to bedding area.Start with #1 and don't over think the process!!!!mr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minnesotahunter Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 i agree with you all but other than the wind i think he has to look at where these deer are in the morning. I have numerous spots where i know deer are in the morning but the problem is being able to get into the spot without spooking the deer. So yes play the wind, but also look at how easily you are able to get into the set without spooking deer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
