Check out the tips, tricks, and tactics he uses to get the job done. Here is what to know when choosing the best treestand tree on the property.
Things covered in this video:
- E-scout for likely bedding, destination food sources, and travel corridors.
- Ground truth your e-scouting and put trail cameras to work to home in on targets.
- Determine what kind of deer you want to kill.
- When hunting mature bucks, don’t hunt the field edge.
