Acorns dropping like mad

What about dawn to like 10am is that a good time to go hunting?

And even pre-rut, it'll depend on your location as to the effectiveness. We have tons of persimmons, and the deer love those. They'll browse around under the tree before touching the feeder right next to it

@Milkgamer55 I go from 5 to 12 normally

Morning hunts I get to the stand about 30 minutes before the very first rays of daylight

@Meatball you use a four wheeler?

If sunrise is 6am, first rays are about 5am, get to the stand at 4:30am

I’ve been going 3 to dark so that might be why I haven’t had as much success.

I use my 4x4 truck to get "close", walk in about 500-600 yards

Oh ok I see what you mean I was gonna say if you go on four wheeler I would go a bit earlier

When I say get to the stand 30 minutes earlier than first light, I mean just that. *get to the stand*, you should be sitting down getting settled at 30 minutes before first light

The closer I get to the stand the slower I go

Yep that's good

Especially with leaves, those things are so loud

I park my four wheeler 200 yards away from the stand and walk the rest

A little trick for leaves is fairly simple

Sweep them out of your way.

Before season, when you're still looking at places

Make yourself a trail.

Keep it swept clean and even the deer will follow it

Well I hunt on dirt bike trails so that’s covered, the deer just love the trails

Yep, they'll use the easiest routes they can find just as people will, but the bigger the buck the less he'll want to be around areas with lots of human activity, too, so might want to get away from the dirt bike trails if they're frequently used

No there not used when it gets cold, also I have i dirt bike track in my back yard so nobody uses it except my family, also I just got a Ruger .350 legend that I’m excited to use

I've not tried the 350 legend myself, but it seems like it would be a great brush gun, lower range but massive impact

I'd love to try it in a hardwood bottom

Got the perfect little place by a creek for it

Low recoil, accurate and good stopping power. But nobody seems to have bullets for it.

I’ve never taken any long range shots at deer either, I’ve always used a crossbow and a .20 gauge

Funny, I see them everywhere

It's one of the few rounds I've seen available actually in stores for the past few months

Must be all the stores near me just don’t care to stock them

Highly possible, as it's not that popular a gun in most places just yet

My buddy has a gun press so I might just make my bullets.

Dunno about making new rounds, but I'll never use reloads for hunting

I've had too many bad experiences with them just target shooting, don't trust them.

Understandable, have a great day.

Hmm. I get that

What do you use to hunt with?

Who u askin?

for bow season I have a PSE Fang 350XT, rifle season i use my 25 year old Savage .308

Both I guess.
