    I was never taught woodsman ship so by watching you and getting boots on the ground, I am learning to be more efficient when scouting. Thank you for taking the time for what feels like teaching me personally, Dan.

      ​@@Lucas-jy7cvjust gotta get out there look for vegetation that looks like a snip was taken and research that. It's good they eat. Look at trees they like to rub on and scrape under. Research them. Research then whitetail all around and get boots in ground

    You remind me of an old Michigan Upe (I think that’s how they say it) I use to work with. He was a 6’2” ex middle linebacker brute of a man but soft as a a teddy bear when it boiled down to it. Love the videos and love it even more now that my sons are watchin you.

    Had no idea you released this on CZcams. I must've been working overseas at the time of release. This is straight up my alley, I live in the heart of the largest swamp in the United States ( Atchafalaya basin). It's 260 thousand acres and a majority is state or federal land and open to public hunting. Thank you for sharing this Dan, much appreciated

    I really enjoy your channel more than any other. Not many guys talking about hunting big woods and big swamp. Nowadays it's all just about growing "food plots", to that I say are you a deer hunter or a deer farmer. I'm a northern MN guy we have our property and it butts up to a 7,000 acre public with hard access because of the swamps on the other side so it's just us and another family that hunt it. And the whole area is loaded with state land because alot is wet so there is no shortage. I'm coming up on 30 years of doing this in this same area and constantly trying to get better. One of your earlier videos about looking at the deer trails in swamps where they funnel to was great advice. I've been scouting some of those places over the winter and I was out again yesterday going to a woods island I thought was going to be good, but i don't think the trees were oaks, the leaves looked maple and I didn't see any buck sign and not even much scat or anything, oh well you don't know till you trek 4 miles through the thick stuff to get there. I did find a place over winter that has a ton of promise. One issue is after finding the place, is to get there during hunting season, if you have a brutal walk out you have to dress for that but then you also have to dress for northern MN conditions in November and sitting all day in it. I've learned alot but there's so much more to know, I'll never know everything but it's the journey that is fun. After almost 30 years I still don't know where our bucks bed. The does are easy but the bucks are so.. mysterious. I don't go hardcore shed hunting and I leave alone some of our known good spots, but I do a ton of scouting and I've never ONCE found a shed. Ever! It doesn't bother me but it's just crazy to me. We have woods but I'd say 65-70% of the land is swamp and all different kinds of swamps maybe 10 different kinds. All interspersed, I love the land but it's such a challenge because I still don't really know what I'm doing haha, I've exceeded my Dad long ago in the effort and thought levels and my little brother is just trying to learn from me so I'm ony own. But we have no shortage of edges that's for sure. In this video I learned about what side they're bedding on for the wind conditions so I will use that for sure. I could've used it yesterday when I was trying to position this stand I drug out to an area in winter by snowmobile. I was probably there for 2 hours trying to pick the best spot for the location.. I might move it again now after watching this video. Sorry for the long ass comment I am still jacked up from a good weekend of scouting and planning and I trapped a nice beaver too.

    Hi Dan,
    🏹🦌🎯The craft of woodsmanship teachings around deer hunting has literally been abandoned. This is just my opinion, but TV big buck mania has hurt deer hunting. We want to leapfrog kids into the hunting sports by sponsoring very early late summer seasons for them instead of teaching the fundamentals. I'm 63 now and have some of the best big woods hunting because most hunters aren't to ambitious getting any farther than a mile...all my scouting is done before April 1st..
    I spend most of my scouting excursions finding/maping a particular bucks beds..for the upcoming season...once I find his major bed I'll usually prepare a tree preset or two so I don't have disturb the area until the day I'm going to hunt it..love the real deal diy you provide for hunters...thanks brother

I don’t want to spread myself too this with all the e-scouting and run myself ragged when my boots hit the ground. Thanks for the insight!!

    • @thehuntingbeast
      @thehuntingbeast  Před 3 měsíci

      I look at a huge area and never hit it all when I get there... I go straight for the best looking stuff and am often glad I have back up spots.

    • @butternutbean1885
      @butternutbean1885 Před 3 měsíci

      Got it! That’s kinda been my approach this far. I put boots on the ground for 3 days mid February and saw a lot of ground. Never touched most of what e-scouted. I’m probably going to end up focusing on 3-4 big pieces and try to have several options within each. I’ll keep on e-scouting and hopefully be lucky enough to see a deer or two next season. Thanks for all you do for the hunting community!!!
