Proper Steps for Supplemental Winter Feeding

Start your feeding program early in the winter, even better yet, during the fall, when deer are still healthy. Waiting until they are starving before providing supplemental feed can hasten starvation through stress related to sudden diet change.

More Opportunities When Bowhunting Kansas Deer

If you plan to hunt the Kansas rut, you should be more concerned about the regions with numbers of does rather than the places with lots of bucks. During the rut, the bucks will be looking for does, not other bucks with which to fight. Kansas has quickly become one of the best big-buck states in the nation.

Improving Antler Genetics By Culling

So, what will culling eliminate? The truth is that culling for anything other than to keep herd numbers in check, which is otherwise known as hunting, will only adversely affect herd balance and structure. Even by eradicating a mature buck that according to several years’ worth of evidence has never had great antler quality, you’re also removing something imperative to a healthy deer population: structure and balance.

Explaining the excitement and joy you feel when you locate that bow buck and finally put your hands on his antlers, for me, creates far more pleasure and excitement than I’ve ever hunting with a rifle.

Frustrated and Bored But Mohan Gets An 8-Point Kansas Buck

The next afternoon, I came in from the other side of the creek and set up my tree stand about halfway up the hill, about 30 yards from the creek. As night approached, I thought to myself, “You dummy. You should have stayed where you were yesterday. All the deer now are running on the other side of the creek where you were set up yesterday.”

Cody Mohan’s Biggest Kansas Buck

The biggest buck I’ve ever taken with my bow scored in the 160s, and I took him on November 12, 2014. I had decided that morning to hunt down in the creek bottom, because I could see somewhat further there than I could in most of the other places that I could hunt.

Land Leases, Scent Control and Hog Hunting in Texas

Most of Texas’s deer and turkey hunting land is tied up in leases. Many hunters haven’t considered the possibility of leasing land in Texas to hunt deer and turkeys, because they believe that all the leases already have been taken. However, Texas is a big state, and it has a lot of land and a lot of deer and turkeys on those lands.

Spot and Stalk Hunting for Deer by Trial and Error

My dad had told me about the spot and knew it from one end to the other. In years past, he and his friends used man drives to push whitetails out of this coolie. He told me about the trails the deer used to come into and out of the field.

The Advantages of Deer Hunting Kansas

Hunting Kansas is unique, depending on which side of the state you hunt. In the northeastern section where I live is lots of timber. When you go to the western section of Kansas, you’ll mostly see crop lands. Although there are different terrains in Kansas, there are big deer all over the state. Kansas homes lots of timber in the northeastern part where I live, but the entire state raises plenty of crops for the
