Identify the Trees That Produce Nuts

During Georgia’s 2017 early archery season, I saw quite a number of young bucks that would be shooter bucks next year. But I didn’t take a buck with my bow. Instead I took a doe for my freezer. However, I’m still bowhunting, although gun season has opened in Georgia.

The Doe Hunt of a Lifetime

I had a tremendous hunt - really the hunt of a lifetime - on opening morning of the 2017 bow season in Texas. I got to my stand about 5:30 a.m., before first light. That morning, I saw three does and two young bucks. But the afternoon hunt was what made this opening day a hunt I’ll never forget.

Small Properties Can Still Hold Deer

I started getting ready for bow season back in the summer. I put out trail cameras, and I created some supplemental food plots. Once the season arrived, I was ready to go. In Texas, we can hunt over feeders. So before deer season, all the landowners and the hunters who lease land put corn in their feeders. Although corn will attract deer, it doesn’t provide much nutrition for the deer. So, I plant fall food
