PLEASE HELP!! WHY ARE MY DEER COMING IN AT NIGHT??
TOO MUCH BAIT? NOT ENOUGH?

 

[Pintail2]

If your gonna bait put it out early and not a lot!..... The right way to do it from what i here is a timed feeder have it set to only go off during the day. If there is bait there at night there gonna come at night its more safe!! If there hungary and the feeder goes off in the late morning then they will be there b4 the does eat it all that afternoon.

Where can you get automatic feeders cheap?

 

[njbowhunter27]

[The Truth]

You are probably baiting in a high pressure area, or they are going somewhere else to feed on something better first. Try not baiting

 

[zschultzy]

How large is the piece of woods you are hunting?

yes

 

[luknikk]

describe the area, how big of a piece are you on, how long have you been hunting there

 

[zschultzy]

its very big its along a highway i been hunting there for 2 years this year will be 3

 

[luknikk]

could be if you been hunting the same spot now for 2 years deer might be on to you, they know your scent with all the comming and goings,

 

[smittty]

you just need to take your time and scout instead of bait ..you need to figure out what there feeding on and when and where there beding its not alway as easy as itn sounds deer will change ther habits weekly some times... it all comes down to the feed

How do i find there bedding area's?

 

[MackofallTrades]

How do i find there bedding area's?

Your feet! Scout it out.

 

[jrhunt]

Look for pillows!!

STOP BAITING AND PUT SOME WORK IN SCOUTING OTHER WISE GET A FEEDER

 

[slayer1962]

bedding areas will usually have long grass and you will find matted down areas the size of deer. In leaves they pack it down in areas the size of deer.
Late season in snow look for areas with no snow the size of a deer (they melt the snow with thier body heat and form pockets)best time to find bedding areas is right after the late season. walking around looking for them now is not a good idea

 

[homework]

Stop baiting and find the natural food sources, or fields they are eating from, hunt their trails leading to and from these food sources.

No bait. Or get a timed feeder and drop 2 pounds a day. They'll learn to get there before the others wipe it out
