HI everyone,
I'm hunting New Hampshire and am hunting a populated area with pockets of woods.
One spot I found today is a smaller wooded site, about 10 acres abbutting a golf course.
I found a textbook perfect pinch point where there's a swamp with good bedding areas which follow a stone wall. Clearly the deer are using an opening in the wall I found. It's immediately next to a white oak stand with piles of fresh droppings all around with leaves kicked up. Definitely a feeding area.
I'm hunting with a crossbow out of a saddle.
We have a cold front coming though this weekend and I'm hoping they'll be moving.
What's the best way to approach this?
Since the bedding areas is immediately adjacent to the feeding area, should I try and catch them cruising from bedding right before sunset? Figure I'd spook them hunting early morning.
Just hung a cell camera out there to try and pattern them in.
Still new to hunting with a few deer under my belt now.
