Keep on the Sunny Side for Late Season Elk Hunting

One of the advantages of hunting late-season bulls is that they usually return to the same places they’ve been in the year before, making them much easier to find. However, the really big bulls, like the herd bulls, often move out to solitary areas away from the other bulls and cows. The bigger bulls generally will hang out on the sunny sides of mountains during the late season.

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.

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.”

A Failed Turkey Hunting Test

I took my son Colton on his first turkey hunt when he was 5 years old. We hadn’t walked too far from my truck before I started calling, and several gobblers answered.
