[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5357674, member: 1409"] You can also, over time, "feather" your strips into much wider strips, by periodically mowing them wider on the edges, but maybe not mowing most of what you last mowed. After you do this about 3 times (maybe over 4 to 8 weeks), you will have a much wider area where the grass/weeds are not as tall, but the deer will continue going thru it, rather than around it. If you simply mow it all down at once in front of your cam, deer will often start going around it, on the far side, out of range of your cam. Avoid too much activity around the site, as the deer may simply start going around the spot because they see, hear, smell you coming there too often. I wouldn't want to go around there any more often than once every 2 weeks, and make that in the middle of the day. Less is better. [/QUOTE]
