I was going to subscribe but I noticed on most of his videos the comments are turned off. Anybody know why he does that? He'd get more views/likes I would think if people could ask questions and interact.

Clown show from this guy

What a 🤡

Bad info from a 🤡

You have a great thing going Josh and I appreciate all of your knowledge and help! Keep up the great work!

Hey josh, thanks for the Insight and wisdom with hunting in late october! So glad to see your Productions moving to the lodge. Looks great. Your friend from SE WI!

Just curious when walking to your stand early in the morning do you use a red light, a green light , a white light or no light at all? Thanks. Very nice lodge and enjoyed the video.

Congrats on a nice deer! I'm seeing it where I hunt but I've only hunted 5 times afternoon only since mid August. I'm also not getting any shooters on camera yet, usually it's by the 12 or 14th of October. I'm starting to think I'm not going to have any. I haven't seen any that I had coming last year. Enjoyed the video.

Scientifically speaking there is no lull. Thats been proven. Its just a period of transition for the deer.

Great content here! Thanks for sharing! Keep em coming!

No "lull" happening on my property. No arrows launched yet but continue to see deer on every sit. Thanks again for all your help!

This is why on my property In Traverse City MI I have sat once, not even going out in the woods until Friday Morning of Haloween weekend.

I don't think it is simply pressure.... I think is does relate to a BIG change in preferred food sources = acorns. The preferred food sources goes from out in open (ag fields + food plots) to timber. Often acorns falling right in your target bucks bedroom. I have hunted on large controlled pressure properties and the LULL still happens. Can't be pressure when you are talking 1 bow hunter per 500 acres of primo hunting land. A plethora of cameras also tell me it is not simply pressure.... because no one is even on the property and cell cams slow to a crawl in mid October. My 2 cents.... with 25y of hunting experience and 1000s of inches of antler on the wall.

Lodge looks killer!

Glad your place is coming along good luck Brentwood S Club

👍👍 on the Lodge Studio grand opening. Looks and sounds awesome. Keep 'em comin'.

Loved the video. Glad Ted from Off the Hook Outdoors shared you on his live tonight. I'm a straight up all public land hunter. Always interested in deer movement and learning hunting strategies. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, I appreciate it. Have a BLESSED day and keep SHARING your PASSION

I have a target buck I have been hunting for three seasons. I have a picture of him mid February and early July in velvet. That’s it this calendar year. Camera History shows he doesn’t show up on the 110 acre parcel until October 18. I have had great weather since season started October 1. I haven’t hunted yet. Am I doing the right thing? I have six cell cams monitoring stands and places he likes to move. Trying to be patient..

Really enjoy listening and learning from your videos. What would be the max size you would consider a shot plot.

Hay Josh another great useful video 👍 and thanks for the tip about Tactacam reveal cell cameras I bought one and love it I’m a caveman when it comes to technical stuff and this thing was so easy to set up I can even do it thanks again Josh

Got 1 question....did you hunt over bait to kill 2022 buck? I live in ky is why I ask

Another great video! Josh👍

Great info josh. Do you think its too late and into my bow season to throw in a new stand that i just didnt get to over summer? Its on the NE edge of the property so not core related or anything near bedding. Had tons of deer using this corridor for late afternoon travel and im worried im missing opportunities

I hunt a location with Lots of strip pits in Missouri. Should I be concerned about that area?

We are getting hit hard in southwest Ohio right now. I have found several mature bucks does and fawns.

EHD is awful but the DNR has zero say in how livestock farms are regulated.

It’s not just michigan buddy it was found in 13 ohio county’s this year think about what that is gonna do to our dear herd but if everyone who watches your video follow deer harvesting practices of EHD deer this can be prevented plenty of info about it on internet please let’s do our part to save our bucks 💯❤️🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌🦌

I heard about this from a buddy this morning. He heard it on the news but I can't find anything online about the Alcona/Newaygo outbreak. We had it start showing up last year in the metro Detroit area. Glad you are putting some info out there about it because other than our news scaring people about it. There is no current info on the recent cases.

Thanks. I just asked DNR here in my local public about this last week. He said nothing close to where I hunt

Years ago I found a young buck dead in a ditch on my way to a deer stand one afternoon, way too far away from a road for it to have been hit by a vehicle, anyhow a few days later i shot a turkey that had this avian pox all over its head, MDC was aware of it that year and was asking for people to report it if they happen to kill one with it - I called the local agent to let them know the when and where about this turkey, he asked if I had found any dead deer as well? I told him about that young buck, he said there had been an outbreak of EHD in my area and that in the fall Deer only really die from two causes, Human or EHD. I had always been under the impression you only found them near water, he claimed you can find them dead anywhere from EHD, also his claim was that there are EHD Deaths every year, it's just the severity of it increases during hot & dry years?

I hope the guys and gals in those areas take your warnings seriously. We went through a bad out break here in IN. a few years ago it is a horrible and heart breaking thing to see and to go thru. Great job Josh trying to get the word and warning out.

Thanks for the info Josh. In NY EHD has been around for a few years and when it hits an area it is devastating. I found 6 dead deer on my property a few years ago but the DEC was too busy to check them so I'm not positive on the cause. In DEC defense there was a major outbreak south of here so they were doing a lot of testing there. My property has 1/2 mile of stream surrounded by 9 acres of wetlands so it's hard to combat here. I installed 2 hard plastic water tanks and made trails through the wetlands with good stream crossings for the deer to use. Does it help with EHD, I'm not sure but I know I did what I could and I haven't found any dead deer this year.

Hey Josh great video guy I’ve experienced this in southern Ohio back in 2017 I lost five of the 6 4 1/2 year-old or older to EHD very devastating took four years to get quality bucks back at my farm we have a river with an eighth of a mile of my property that will flood create the mud holes along the banks because of the mountains a very well-known EHD area . Just a thought but I wondered if anybody is working on a vaccine or something like this that you could get into the Deer to prevent the EHD affect ? This disease is very devastating to the national deer herd !!!!

I don't know much about EHD. I watch Jimmy Houston Outdoors TH-cam channel and he raises deer as a hobby. He has lost a couple deer to EHD and from what I understood from his videos the midge gets up into the deer's nose. I didn't realize they can spread it my biting the animal. Jimmy raises deer for the love of the animal, not profit or money. I think they spray muriatic acid on the ground and use water tanks instead of ponds. I see no reason for finger pointing. From what I understand the midge most likely come from the outside of deer enclosers. Jimmy does have a lake and with the lack of rain the lake drops a few inches everyday creating a new mudline. Its hard to watch deer suffer and die from EHD. Thank God it doesn't spread from deer to deer. Jimmy Houston's deer channel- th-cam.com/users/jhproductions100videos

A good portion of Michigan's natural lakes, ponds and other wetlands are finally receding from 50/60 year high levels over the last couple of years. Not sure how any man made effort is going to put a dent in anything. Have you seen the blue within the state from above?

Yikes, spread the word and help each other

Yes! Finally! 100%

Great info Josh👍

Excellent video Josh i’ve always wondered about shooting does early mid season late season this really helped me understand when we should be taking does off of my property . You really touch on topics that most other land consultants don’t mention keep up the good work enjoy watching your videos

Perfect timing. Was just thinking of best option for youth hunting in early October. I got two boys that are looking forward to shooting first deer and the other his second…. Like the night retrieval option.

Try hunting NJ early season you have to shoot a doe to get a buck tag.

I followed the “no summer food” theory on my farm in central KY last year and by the time hunting season arrived, the big bucks had relocated and established their home on summer food on other farms resulting in me shooting jack squat! This year, put in summer food and holding a few 3 year olds. Winter food going in next week. I’m glad you addressed this topic since when others advise people with strong conviction to avoid summer food, it can work in some areas but not in our neck of the woods.

The truth is that you have eliminated you'r depth of cover added summer food and setting people up for failure and for there neighbors to shoot there bucks . There is no reason why your oldest bucks would ever need to travel to your neighbors property for them to shoot them while all you saw was immature bucks. Probably only during the first week of November. Show people the proof that you were holding those mature bucks every single day during during fall from Oct 1 till December 25 . "Daylight pics" summer deer do nothing as far as holding deer . In fact if you're attracting bucks in the summer you're attracting more does .which is a bad thing. Prove me wrong

Great video Josh! All makes sense to me
