Most that worry about it think their way is bettr - i just love trying to hunt a deer. Pressure and wind hav always been at the forefront of my hunting even way before any mention of corn going back decades and i hav always like fields - clearcuts and crossings

Just kill the dang deer - nobody cAres about your hero story 🤣🤣🤣. There a lot of different ways to do it - pick a way that is a legal way to kill him and since i am not a nerd - i am not going to care which legal way u pick 🤣🤣

I was doing this crap with dogs when a lot of yall were probably not even born

Just took a camera off a field today - does that make me a bettr hunter 🤣🤣😀 like i care - wish i would hav done pull sooner for pressure reasons

Good luck fellers 😀


Hunt the wind - leave it better than you found it - love your neighbor as you love your self
We need prayer for our country now more than ever

Pwyse, I don’t really draw the line if he’s a big mature buck lol. I’ll shoot him wherever and whenever during legal hunting hours. I really watch more deer now than shoot anyway. I still enjoy looking through the woods and fields and trying to look at how they travel. I try not to even go into the places I know are good until the rut on a day I feel like I’ve got good conditions and wind in my favor.

Personally, I don't care how other folks hunt. I've all but stopped hunting anyhow. But.......I have a little different outlook on the cameras that has nothing to do with making hunting easier or not. I've never used one for hunting purposes.....seriously. But not because I'm the great white hunter. To me, cameras would take some of the "mystique" out of it. I remember as a kid finding scrapes, licking branches and tracks and visualizing in my mind how big the buck may be. It was exciting to think about and is what would drive me to hunt harder, just to find out what this thing really looked like. Now, folks know exactly what they are hunting and there's no "surprise" to it when you see them. I kind of compare it to knowing ahead of time what Santa had left under the tree before you got up Christmas morning. grin


The true mark of a man is not how he conducts himself during times of prosperity, but how he conducts himself during times of adversity.

The comment on the use and ease of using a sxs to tote corn got me to thinking about how easy they have made it to get deer out and getting into duck holes and how useful they are. I thought I was in high cotton in 1986 when I wired 2 houses and bought a Honda big red 3 wheeler. I just shot a doe and I guess I was thinking how easy it is now. Oh and no corn or feeder anywhere close lol.

I been feeding for years regardless of laws . I haven’t kill any deer close to a feeder . All deer I’ve killed has come out of cutover . I keep one feeder out mostly to see what out there . Deer, pigs, coons whatever . Mature bucks in my area will not come to a feeder. Maybe one time during rut an always at night . I killed mature within 1/4 mile of feeder a never seen him near feeder or on any camera . They are just that smart or they wouldn’t live over 4 years here . I’ve caught over 300 pigs at the feeder because I move it around to where pigs are at . Have 2 different traps . I would rather trap hogs any day than kill a big buck . Cameras are a big help for hogs and pre baiting . But for me personally in my area corn and cameras has had zero effect on deer or quality of deer me or my friends have killed . 2nd or 3rd year cutover is the trick .

When I used to do the corn camera thing, I had a process. This process was mainly geared at clubs due to the random nature of other member and pressure.

I’d grid off the property that I was hunting into 100 acre sections, and then place a camera with corn within that area where I thought I had the best chance to locate a mature buck. Mainly transitions. The more that came together, the better.

Those cams would only be in said areas for 6-7dys. I was only interested if I had a shooter on days 1-3. This meant “to me”, that this particular buck lived or frequented this area often and wasn’t brought in by feed. After that amount of days, the data didn't mean much. However if there was a really good buck that showed up on days 4-7, then I’d triangulate cams with a little feed in the direction that he was coming from. In hopes to get him in those 1-3dy timeline. Sometimes this worked.

Each week I’d move all my cams to new areas in order to locate more/better deer in effort to build a “hitlist”. Once the hitlist was established, I’d go back in those areas, with corn, for one more week of data closer to season to verify that particular deer was still there. If so, then I’d look into topos, aerials and boots on the ground to figure out how to kill said deer.

This process worked for me every year on taking multiple mature deer in a pressured environment. Corn and cameras.


This is actually a very great idea. I've done similar scenarios. But haven't thought about the triangular piles to find which way he's coming from. I LIKE IT.
