[QUOTE="Lost Lake, post: 5753856, member: 12599"] Private land, or post Covid YouTube public land hunt…….?? On private family land…. My buddies and I do a lot of post season scouting each year on our family farm in west Tennessee. In late Winter, we chop or clear trails, take down stands, and contemplate new stand sites. In mid summer, we hang a lot of stands, reposition or place new ladder stands as needed, and clear shooting lanes. We also clear paths to early season food sources for using climbers during early to mid archery season. It saves a lot of time and commotion when acorns are dropping and we need to be in the trees. We normally hunt 4 hours in the mornings, and three hours in the evenings when archery starts. Mid day is used for napping or butchering deer if we’re successful. We try to stay out of the woods if not hunting at this time unless we really need to find hot oak trees. Pretty much the same routine during muzzleloader and rifle seasons. We might do a few all day sits during peak rut movement, but usually somebody is hollering that they need help with a deer, so that idea usually gets rurnt. Public land for us has turned into quite the uhh, entertainment so to speak, in the last few years. I’ll bowhunt it, but rarely visit during any firearms seasons unless it’s a draw hunt. Even then, you pays yer money and you takes yer chances. I know others have zero problems and are quite adept at the game and enjoy the process. [/QUOTE]
