- Saving your best rut stands for the right time of the deer hunting season can be hard to do.
Mature bucks are easier to hunt when the prerut starts and many hunters spoil their best treestand locations too early when mature bucks are paying attention to every detail. This video shows how easy it is to boogger up a hunting location.

Great vid
i would agree with pretty much everything you said, but i think early to mid October can be a great time to shoot a big buck. I would wait for a significant drop in temp and of course the right wind. By the end of October some of those bucks could have already been taken by the neighbors. great video.thx
Absolutely one of the best CZcams videos on these topics. Great job going into detail. Thank you
Very nice video Randy.
I scout for deer sign and pull sd cards during wet weather if i can.
I've been really paying attention to these kind of tips, and super excited watching the deer come into my areas, on the wireless cameras. The bigger bucks in my area are really hanging out on my property
Good job explaining randy
This is probably the best informational video I've seen. Good job!
Awesome!!!
Well said Randy.
One of the best videos on setting up a hunting area & using discipline to hunt it.
Way to load TONS of GREAT INFO into 20 min...with graphics!
Yes sir good video I was wondering when is it good to hang your stand I take mine down after the season is over I don’t start hunting till the end of October on
Love the facts spit in this video 🎯
Great video, great advice
Outstanding video in laying out a property and seeing it pay-off as planned.
Absolutely! Best advice for real world hunting!
Awesome video
We hunt on our own private land which is 45 acres but its joined to 100s of other acres so anything can walk through. Now we only make one trip out 2 days before opening day to put anything we need in our blinds/stands and then stay out of the woods until then. We dont even sight in anymore. Just check it with a laser to make sure nothing shifted from last year. No need for everyone to take 3 shots at 50 yards. Since we cut back on all the dicking around we've been getting a lot more bucks. I was getting pissed the old guys take multiple trips out to the woods just to drop off a thermal pad and maybe hang up a couple pieces of camo.
Tradition and old habits by the seasoned generation are hard to overcome.
Very good video with some strong points. Well done.
Nicely done. I'll have to watch this a few Times.
Yes thanks a bunch for some of the Best hunting info very helpful.
awesome info thanks! subbed
Well done!
I really liked this video.
Great visuals...
Good stuff!
Thanks Randy! Appreciate your time and effort to put together these videos. I watch and study them often, and will probably have to have you come out to my property some day to get an outsiders perspective. I think I am too close to it, and get in a mental rut!
Great video! I wish i had some land!!!
Great advice. I already place my blinds out of sight. I will be using scent killer from now on.
This video is spot on. Thanks for the reminder. Now that I have everything set for hunting season(Florida), it’s hard to stay off the land since it is right by my house.
Im living in Florida now too. Do you like the hunting here?
@@thomashood3748 I do! I have 15 acres here at my house and a couple spots on family land. Unfortunately the area is heavily pressured and very few deer reach maturity.
Another great video. I have yet to step foot in the woods and it doesn't look like I will have the opportunity until the 26th. Prime time in SE Michigan. 😁
I just hunted one time and i did it on public land. It was kindof a dress rehearsal getting all gear around etc. Best wishes Miguel
@@adventurerhoades Best of luck to you as well. We are heading up to Roscommon to hunt the cabin next weekend. I am so looking forward to being back in Michigan.
deer are attracted to the fresh green smell after breaking and cutting green alders and bushes, I believe that is what they were smelling but i do not doubt they picked up on your scent.
Cell cameras have changed the game
Beautiful Buck Farmall congrats!
Hey I know you 😘🇺🇸
@@adventurerhoades thank you!
@@VicsYard 👍👍
Man I would almost pimp myself out for half a day with that bobcat mulcher
I hunt a small 12 acre timber lot on the backside of a neighborhood in SW Virginia one of the major factors I think in making it great but also tiny and lacking food plots is walking in a dry creek bed into the mtn unless it rains hard then it’s almost a trout creek
In New York everybody starts baiting deer on ther property when it's illegal screws up the season so I go hunt state land and still run in to bait piles in woods
Move out of New York and your season will be ok!
Its hard when im hunting smaller pieces of public and know others will probably go in there and blow it up. Any advice? Kill them early is what im finding this season. I have definitely already started planning for next season
How many acres is the land total?
80 acres
Nicely done video! How do you keep deer from using the orange hunter access trail?
Thanks Scott. I don't try to keep deer off my access trails. I have a separate pair of rubber boots just for hunting that I keep in a rubbermaid tote with carbon activated powder. I rarely have deer pickup my foot trail. But I still stay out of my better stands for the pre rut starting in late Oct.
Thanks for the reply. Sometimes I need to walk on or cross the travel corridors between food and bedding so good to hear you don't see much effect.
@@SeeMoreBucks i keep my boots and hunting clothes in a tote that has shelled corn at the bottom and some cobb corn for a top layer. Do you think carbon powder would be better??
@@bjohnson3361 Corn may mask your scent but it won't absorb your scent like Carbon will. Also not sure if the corn in the tote will turn rancid if it gets moist from your boots or pant legs.
Should I hunt with the wind in my face or a cross wind?
Depends how good your scent control is and the situation your hunting in. Many times my scent is blowing where I expect deer to be coming from or ending up
Hey great video really got a lot from it what is that moon app in your video
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ksolution.huntingtimes&hl=en_US&gl=US
the stick that you hung in the tree that the deer were smelling, what is the purpose and is it treated with something?
That was a grape vine hung at the height deer like for licking branches over ground scrapes. Not treated with any scent. Deer leave their own scent on the vine for the next deer to smell.
Great video , how much to scout a parcel $? Mid MI 80acres
I was wondering the same. I am up in Fife Lake area. What area are you at?
Beaverton , south of Gladwin.
I almost consider scent a magical power for deer. They do make mistakes though. My thought is, if they smell where a coyote or wolf has walked do they never come back?
Well when i win the lottery and buy some land i can do this
Deer hunting is easy and killing big bucks is easy. Its all about pressure. If a big buck is unpressured you will get him first hunt. If you can find a patch of unhunted woods you will find that big buck because they arent conditioned. The public land bucks are the hard bucks. Im speaking from experience and on a couple of hunts i killed a bruiser within 10 mins of sitting on the ground. Not pressured ... !
Starting my own hunting CZcams please help me prove my wife wrong she said i would never get even 100 subs! I’m new at this! Learning how to be better camera man bear with me just got new camera guys I’m trying get better get more footage as we speak
I hunt for meat period !!
They didnt smell your finger prints🤦♂️😂😂. They may have smelled whatever was on your hands but your finger prints dont have scent. Love the video tho
He’s talking about scent prints, basically what you said simplified
I'm no expert. I was able to buy some land in 2018. Im mainly working now. I do have days off here and there. Im trying to hunt state land until around Oct 24th. Trying to stay disciplined and stay out of the property
😂😂😂😂😂 the high pressured states you mentioned have multiple well known guys that barely ever make it to the rut because they are usually tagged out by mid October on their target deer. These few guys do this consistently because the best time to kill a giant is when he is actually on your property and not a mile away chasing a random doe.
Hunting is murder 😡
