Create ALL Season Deer Hunting Parcels

- One of the biggest signs of a poorly designed deer hunting parcel is that you can only hunt it during the rut.The longer your land is productive and offers great hunting, the better your hunting and habitat strategy has become. Most deer parcels can only be counted on during the rut but the good news is that you can change the potential for an all season hunt in 1 season. Here is how...

Great information
Hope we're still getting a Sunday morning video lol
Another great one.. Ty
God bless 🇺🇸
You sure are David..."February Deer Hunting Chores" 😊
Thank YOU!
I live on my 40 acre property and have primarily been a single food source property. My property was a large early season property. Tons of bucks early. And as the rut arrived most bucks would leave only leaving a few. In the last few years I have changed that some for the better by implementing a lot of your strategy on my property. Access, low pressure, Thick, Switch, bedding etc. Excited for next season because I am adding twice the amount of food at the other end of the property. Thanks for all the great advice.
I have 7 achers of OK hunting land and get day time bucks as big as 8 points that are maybe 3.5 years old, you can do it yall.
In Michigan one of the biggest "its brown, it's down." States.
Thanks Jeff! We got a foot of snow here in IL, it's probably nothing to you in MN! Lol, feels like a lot to me! But I can see where the deer are at and how good the bedding is with snow!
Spent all day today creating doe bedding areas next to cleared and ready to go food plots. Also created buck bedding areas away from each food plot with connecting transition where we will be placing water holes and licking branches.So much work and been going every Saturday for the last two and a half months. It’s all coming together slowly but surely.
That all sounds great RS...and a lot of fun! Very satisfying 👍
As always thanks for the content Jeff. Hoping to have my own land here in Alabama to implement your tactics some day.
You are very welcome Kevin and I hope that you do too!
I have a huge brush pile from clearing for plot. With that brush should I burn it where it is? Use the brush for cover In other places. Or take somewhere else to burn
Trying to narrow down public land areas that aren't just "rut" hunting opportunities only. For 2-3 year olds is the goal. Diversity and minimal pressure is what I'm trying to key in on. Not an easy task in the mid Michigan area but I've been lucky enough to locate a few. There has been quite a bit of clearcutting lately so that will help out as well. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge to us TH-cam viewers 🙂
Once again, a Home Run Jeff! Being a real-world small parcel owner/manager, I really appreciate the emphasis that you place on small parcels when you share your valuable info. What you have relayed here as with many of your videos closely mirrors what I am seeing and trying to do on my small parcel(50acres) here in Pa. Thanks so much and keep up the good work - much appreciated!
This topic is huge, my properties, including my home are rut properties, I do well hunting with your weather advice- but usually limited to rut. -Andy
It sure is Andy and thanks a lot for still watching after all this time...means a lot to me!
I feel like my buck pictures dropped with the rut starting this year. I have never seen it do like it did.
Love your work!
Thank you very much...I hope this one makes sense and helps you out!
@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 I appreciate it makes a lot of sense!!
As always great info brother keep up the good work
Have you ever recommended no food on a parcel? We have a swamp in the middle of upland and are overrun with does and no bucks
serious question, what about the reciprocal? why do i never see any bucks during the rut, according to most of the videos from you iv watched, its probably during the lockdown phase and such. But I'm curious to know if this is a good problem to have. its private property and we have a good mix of deer and I try to apply all the advice I can from you. just curious if this is something I should worry about.
Glad I watched this video. I have a 127 acre property that I have been developing following your channel and books. I estimate that I have between 15-20 does and fawns total that are residents. I am getting pictures of about 30-35 different bucks during the year. Some a lot and some just few times. We have started taking a few does off each year. Thanks for all you do and your great information.
Definitely need to implement some of these ideas on our 300 acre Farm I had one camera in a bottleneck or a funnel that got pictures of at least nine different bucks all over 130" cruising during the rut. I did have pictures of a few other small bucks. And some of the bucks I had pictures in other locations on the farm some I had never seen.
As I said before we have very few does I only shot one doe on the farm this year. We're not anywhere near our carrying capacity in this part of Central Kentucky.
The bucks tend to roam a lot during the rut.
2022 will be my 3rd year hunting. Appreciate the tips and info Jeff. Hope to get you out to my property here in a couple years or so.
Youbare very welcome Jake...hope to visit with you soon!
Can definitely agree about the bucks and does. I live in the city and have killed several does behind my house during urban archery. Ive seen over 12 does at a time on 1/4 acre in the past and zero bucks. Must have lost a large amount due to the road a few blocks aways because I’m only seeing a group of six at best. Because of the decrease in does I now consistently see about seven different bucks on camera. More bucks than ever. Two at 3y/o, four 2y/o and numerous spikes and fork horns. The mock scrape I made in 2020 has really made my property a focal point. Just need to figure out ways to get them to come in during daylight.
Hoping for some information on house and driveway planing. (Existing placement) thanks!!
I will try to work that in somewhere sometime Kurt!
Simple topics go over peoples heads love this episode yall come to Florida and gator hunt !!!
I followed Jeff’s recommendation too the letter the only thing I’m not happy with is the hinge cuts will be going on year 4 regarding all the improvements done too my land but those cuts looks like tornado alley 🤦don’t have the machinery needed and unfortunately $ to clear all that crap out oh well guess you gotta take the good with the bad
Had a walk on the property yesterday and was able to get some great Intel on bedding and travel. Thank you guys for all your time and help you offer. It's always fun to see a morning video with some coffee.
Those are awesome walks Spencer enjoy the coffee - I am 😊
Trail cams telling me that pre-pre rut is best daytime movement of older bucks by my licking branches. Once there's one in estrus (my thinking) they're not hitting the same trails. Still see the younger crowd all pre rut and rut.
My thoughts Exactly!
Great tips Jeff! Did anyone else in your family full buck tags in Wisconsin and/or Minnesota?
Any thoughts on deer feeders?
Had a property in Missouri that I used to be able to hunt and did some habitat work on had a huge problem as being a doe sink. I just did not have enough control to be able to change it enough. After five years of hunting it I did not bother going in there until the second week of November and the bucks were there for about a week and then they were gone.
It was the only block of cover in a big agricultural area. Almost 150 acres of it. Unfortunately there’s a big lake right in the middle of it that people fished a lot and it really caused the big bucks not to tolerate such activity. I had tons of food all over it but I just could not achieve the depth of cover without more control of the timber stands.
Jeff , could you do a video on pines in a 50/50 cover to ag scenario? I'm finding once pines get above 8' tall the deer don't use them as much for bedding. Lots of browsing of the lower end of the pines causes the failure.
Jeff, can you clarify "rut", seeing how their is a first, second, and third, which here in MI means we have the rut from Oct - Dec, correct?
Hi Greg...in your location in MI about a 2 week period the last few days of October until just before the gun opener on the 15th. Many parcels really only can expect a good hunt around the 2nd thru the 10th of Nov...which is pretty bad.
Not so much it's not like they are in rut for 3 months but there will be does that come into estrus over the course of the 3 months just have to watch the buck behavior
@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 Thanks for the clarification Jeff. Always helps when I have more context so that I apply the correct strategies as and when needed.
Great topic. Buying 180 acres 2 months ago and seeing the bucks we had towards the end of season, and now seeing only a few doe groups, is eye opening. We need food in a big way on my property. Lots of potential and I’m excited as i launch our habitat plan. Thanks for the great advice along the way Jeff.
Really happy that you see that! Food is critical to your success...quality food, not just browse and TSI.
neighbor on both sides of my 40 acre parcel have had timber stand improvements. How can I maximize/use this to my advantage? my land has not been cut.
How many mature bucks did you have consistently around your property last year? Also would you recommend the hybrid willow for screening open fencline between neighbors property?
Hi Jay...with 4 year olds+, consistently 4 to 8 all season in MN. And still around
WI 2 to 5 hanging around fairly consistently into mid January, but I haven't been as diligent maintaining trail cams lately.
I would recommend the hybrid willow if staggered at least 2 rows, 5' spacing. Not the willow trees, but bushes...
Thanks jeff
What do you do with an over number of does we just pull all the does in our area and can’t possibly shoot that many does to manage them and what ends up happening is it’s very good in the rut but we only truly hold small bucks and like 2 big bucks on our 500 acres and most of it is field but we have very good brush in the woods and it’s a major bedding area that we never go in. So I just want to know like what is the best option to do for this situation.
The first step in doe reduction is to get rid of Summer food...if you have any.
Here is my latest video on having too many does and Doe Factories 😊

Hope it helps!
So Jeff I hear u talk on number of bucks exceeds does. I have that on my land now and have been following u and the improvements but can't get over a young (1-2 yrs old) bucks. How do I influence a older age class?
Funny when I clicked on your video it said no views yet. And kurt pearson said he's 1st 🤔🤔 ???
Ha, he is fast! 1st comment....
@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 oh is that what their so happy to be 1st at .... I thought they were happy to be 1st to watch the latest GREATEST deer hunting video on you tube. LOL 😂😂. Keep up the great work Jeff and Dillon 👍👍
So I have 49 acres in Central Kentucky. Half woods, half fields/brush/bedding. Can you suggest how many does would be a good number to have? Or would you need more info to give a reasonable answer to that questoin?
What setting do you use on your earth-way seeder for Buckwheat?
I believe around 4...but not certain about that.
Great video Jeff! Keep up the great work!
I have an issue where almost all of the bucks traveling through my property go through at night. I rarely get game cam shots of a buck during the day. Anything I can do to change their schedule a bit?
So much you can do!! I suggest you check out my playlist for how to attract daylight bucks to your land...dozens of videos there!
Food is king if I have private land u need foodplot period
I have 5 acres and my naighbour who runs dogs runs them on my property and its va so I can't do it and clubs use it for advantages by running dogs on other people land it's just annoying since we have very little bucks manly spikes so all I shoot are does and the club shoots only bucks
Hi Jeff, I have 200 acres with a lot of cover and about 10 acres of food plots. What Is my ideal doe herd number for my property?
I’m not Jeff, but here my thoughts, if a mature doe eats about 2,000 pound of forage a year, and you plant 5 acres of brassicas and that plot does great that’s ruffle 10,000 pounds of forage; that would add up to 5 does a acre. So do the math, and add up how many deer you can have for the amount of forage you can produce. I’m not an expert but, that’s my 2 cent.
So do want equal doe and bucks or more bucks cause I would say our farm has about double the bucks to does from spikes to 12 points ???
Hi Denny! Over the course of a season you should see more kown bucks than known does. Bucks are coming from a much larger home range tho...
Ok thanks bubba I been working hard this season to make the necessary improvements.
First ha!
Great job Kurt 😊
