    Woukd You Bait This Location?

    This week I retrieved my trail cam at a new location. It's public land that borders private at a fence line. It caught a new buck everyday at this point where they jump the fence. I plane to hunt it this week or the next from a tree stand. My buddy suggested putting out some apples to keep...

    Let's talk about poop.

    Yeah I was thinking a climber or stake blind, I don't want to leave it out there and want the option to move based on their behavior at the time i'm hunting. I now understand where they are will be is dictated by the time of my hunt. How often have you been able to spot and stalk or still hunt...

    Let's talk about poop.

    I will be hunting with a bow in the Eugene Area.

    Let's talk about poop.

    Blacktail Elevation

    I'm new to blacktail hunting and reading 'Trophy Blacktails'. It mentions migratory and resident deer and bases this behavior on altitude. My question is, what is high altitude in this scenario? What other signs are you looking for to determine what type of population is in the area?
