[QUOTE="Harold Money jr, post: 5213851, member: 4591"] I guess my title was a bit misleading. I was trying to impart some hunting wisdom in the form of a question hoping to get a bit of dialog going. I’ve hunted literally my whole life, since there were few deer in the early 70’s until now with an abundance. It’s funny the same places that somehow spoke to me in my early teen years were good areas, I was sabotaging them by hunting on the wrong wind or hunting them too much. The areas are 300% better producers now, than years ago until I learned to play the wind and most importantly thermals. It pays to learn what the thermals do in the predawn areas that a person hunts and in the evenings when they often switch. It also took me years to learn that how you hunt in October affects the numbers you see in November, even during the rut. I hunt cattle farms and almost without fail within 30yds of an outside fence corner that juts back into the woods is a great place to hang a stand in cattle country. Mega, you surmised my point with a lot less words to get confused about, thanks! I’m proud to be an old school hunter who is still learning stuff each year and learning the hows and why’s of different areas and deer. I really appreciate the wealth of knowledge that is spread here. [/QUOTE]
