By law, you cant even keep them. Try to find some good bedding areas where there is a good concentration of bucks. Also trails going to and from winter feeding areas. (in the food plots if you have some available to you). __________________ RACK-A-HOLIC

Spread a 4' X 4' net of fishing line about 3 feet of the ground and throw some apples/corn under it. __________________ Support the N.J.O.A. and the "Littel Amendment" An amendment to the New Jersey State Constitution that Guarantees the right to hunt, trap, and fish in New JerseyNew Jersey Outdoor Alliance

A good "shed trap" is rebar hammered into the ground in the shape of a W so that 2' sticks up. Put corn or some other deer feed out in the W... when the bucks feed on the corn they gently bang their antlers on the rebar and they often fall off really close to the site. __________________ Life Member NRA, NAHC, NAFC

| I've had limited success, but a lot of fun over the years hiking the woods from late February to early April. Spent some quality time on Saturday afternoons with a cigar in hand walking thru some interesting sections of woods. | ||
