All I keep hearing in this episode are the sweetest most beautiful words...."Don't trust the government!"
Yep. I was thinking same thing.
Especially now
😂 "So I'm Jeff"😂 thanks for the funny blooper... Great info as always, we appreciate your hard work!
Thanks a lot JJ 😁

Amen 👍
EXACTLY 💯
@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 My wife is a scientist and has the hardest time admitting that scientists have their own biases and agendas just like everyone else. Even in the face of overwhelming evidence, she is slow to assign bad intent to the scientific community. She has a great mind but a definite blind spot when it comes to that. Great video, Sir.
I love watching your video content. I plan on implementing the information you provide . Thank you.
Thanks a lot Chuck we really appreciate you!
Great video I like the longer 20 30 min mark just because I find it all to be very interesting cant get enough thank you for sharing your knowledge and go lions
Thank you Alejandrao, that really means a lot!
This was one of your BEST videos, thanks for sharing your wisdom. We really appreciate the work you put into these free knowledgeable shares.
Thanks a lot Perry...you are very welcome!
Talking about food, I was amazed when a coworker of mine showed me a video he took of a deer eating honey mushrooms in september. I went for a walk last weekend and found a spot where a deer dug into the snow to access polypores on deadwood.
It is amazing how they will dig down thru the snow to get to that stuff!
Great topic Jeff!!! In Wis in the early 2000s the DNR implemented “earn a buck” to knock down the deer numbers. Urgh!!! Didn’t take long and the deer were few and far between. Took years to recover. Sorry I’m venting. Thanks Jeff
That Earn a Buck was one of the dumbest things ever thought up of. 🙄
Love the fact that you are willing to share your knowledge. Thanks Jeff 6:31
Thank you Ronald...really appreciate you!
Thank you Jeff! Always great to hear your thoughts on all of this!
Thanks Jake, I hope it helps!
Thanks Jeff, sorry for my absence but after such a crappy season I needed a no deer break. Got caught up on your videos last night.
Well that is needed every year for me too! I hope you liked the new vids. We have a surprise coming up soon for you guys we hope you like 😊👍
Absolutely love all videos! Always look forward to the next uploaded video. I learn so much from you guys! Stuff that I would never think about. Keep it up!
Thanks a lot Cody, we really appreciate you watching!
Are you guys gunna be at the Great American Outdoor show in PA?
Took a ride to my neighbors food plots last week.No way I can compete with that.I will take run off.And be happy.Going next week to look for sheds.Couple I really want to find.But they all count
Same here. The neighbor leases the land to a guy who has multiple food plots set up. BUT on the land I hunt, there is a load of cover, browse, and bedding that the deer utilize, so planting food plots is a waste of time and money.
Dang D! Well the one good thing is roughly 90-95% of all hunters with a lot of food plot acreage hunt their plots very poorly...easy to take advantage of!
Good message on doe management Mr. Sturgis! You’re a big influencer so it’s good that you’re calling out all of the illegal activity. Also, good no-hat look!
Came here to complain that you weren't wearing a hat. I'm glad you fixed that problem.
😂 thank you!!
Yep he went from a 1960s news reporter to Jeff in 1.3 seconds lol
I love watching your videos... I wish we had a southern version of your videos because everything is different down here in Bama...
I really appreciate that! Always remember while the habitat is different, the concepts are all the same anywhere a whitetail roams 👍😊
Chapel Hill, NC is doing a gps study. Our parcels are relatively small with fragmented woodlots. Itll be interesting to see the data that comes of it.
That will be nice to see!! Hopefully not 100% wooded. We need more fragmented habitat...ag land, subdivisions, golf courses, open fields, big swamp land, etc. areas with definite daylight holding breaks in cover...areas that can't hold deer. All the studies currently done are on connected habitat.
Food plot 2.0 & 2.1 has crushed things. It had deer all season, all off season and just had a TANK still with his full rack get his phot taken. The deer are working it hard and it’s February.
It’s not is the greatest location on the land but we were kind of stuck so had to adjust ourselves and our entry. I used enter in the woods early the deer are on the food and exit through food as deer on in the woods all season. Saw target buck #2 came in behind me circles around to get In the wind was so close I could have dropped my xbow on his he was 4 steps from shot distance and a bear spooked him….didn’t spook me I had a bear tag! Hahaha. Nice 275 lber. First bear fourth one close enough to shoot only one that gave a shot.
Discussing food plot 3.0 now, trying to decide if we should roll or just seed and spray right on top. We have room to grow and add corn or soy beans or something better any suggestions are welcome
Love the videos Jeff! Quick question:
In the South we have a lot of planted pine tracts with no ag neighbors like a lot of your videos mention. In these areas it seems that quality food can the limiting factor, with lack of good cover as a close second.
On a 40 acre pine tract, What are your recommendations for food plot acreage and cover acreage?
Also with no summer ag neighboring in our area, do you recommend summer food plots to help the deer herd and antler development?
I’d love to hear more southern habit references even though I know that accounts for a small percentage of your client.
Sorry this question wasn’t very quick after all…but maybe you can help this southern boy out. Thanks!
Our area fortunately or unfortunately appears to have way more bucks than does. Maybe our area of the woods and river system is more conducive to bucks, but we get 2 or 3 times more bucks on cam than does, and its actually worried me over the past couple seasons. We also have an over abundance of coyotes, which may play a role as well. We can only do so much predator hunting on our farm, when there is 100s of acres of sanctuary County land, less than a half mile away
Typically the greater the amount of cover Vs food, the better the ratio. Summer food and year-long food breeds high for #s.
Just add lots of summer food! And you will have a lot more does...but be careful what you wish for 😁
I have the same problem 😢 I hunt 700 acres with a river running thru the middle and I have way more bucks than does. A few giant's but mostly young bucks and they run the does off from the feeders. There's 114 acres of crops, a couple of small food plots. But there's Sooo many coyotes and a couple of mountain lions 🦁... we kill all the coyotes we can, shoot the wild hogs but if all does have twins we only have a doe or 2 with twins and the rest have 1 or none because the fawns get ate. Basically our doe numbers stay the same because the fawns that live and public hunting around us some does get shot so doe numbers stay the same. Before the mountain lions showed up we had way more does. Of course the state says there's no mountain lions but we see them all the time and have them on camera 🙄 We do everything we can to help the deer but it's a hard battle because the state DNR doesn't do its job !!!
Great video Jeff.. lots of info!!
Thanks a lot Brian I really appreciate it!
Hey Jeff, I have been watching you for over 3 years. I have without any other words been completely been sturgised. I used to be very successful with harvesting the biggest bucks in the area but with your theories I have been doing everything wrong. My family ownes about 350 acres in Central Pennsylvania and I would like your help.
Thank you, Jeff. Go Lions!
Thank YOU Joshua!! GO LIONS 👍😊!!
Excellent video and I like the statistic models that you provided. I don't have private land but hunt on public land so I appreciated your videos. I would like to take the opportunity to thank you for the videos that you provide two weeks ago on my last day I had available to hunt I was able to pull a nice 8-point 145 lb buck out of the swamp here in Florida I know it's not as big as what's up north but for a Florida swamp deer it was an excellent deer I'm taking the cape now to get him mounted thanks again. If you would like to see it I have a video posted on my channel under America Boon
The 3up rule in w PA can be frustrating at times for the hunter..
Off topic Jeff but what's your opinion on the potential record Ohio buck Taken by CJ Alexander. Also do you really think it's common for a buck to travel 15 miles. I find that highly unlikely.
With EHD around, I don't shoot doe's like we used to.
I thought ya had a guest speaker till I clicked on the video 😂 put your hat back on man!
😂
Great info, as always, Jeff! I'm looking for a small parcel either in Wisconsin or Illinois, but everything is so high in price right now. You finding any sheds? Southern WI lots of guys are scoring.
Hi Jason, thanks a lot! We've seen 2 bucks out of around 20/25 bucks that have shed. 1 shed both in mid Dec and he was injured. Another 1 lost 1 antler. Way too early yet to get out. Maybe early March?
@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 I'm getting kinda eager my buddy scored on a giant 1 side and 2 others this week. I normally start going super bowl weekend
I’ve got a property that I just picked up for turkey and deer this coming up year great area, but they will be having monthly side by side rides on it and doing whatever else work in between those rides. They will be shutting it down from the first of October to the first of December. Should this affect this property’s potential?
How should I plant clover this spring that was a rye plot last year and had been sprayed?
Hi Drew! You can seed into that at the same time you spray Glyphosate on it in the spring. I would also add 50#s of oats per acre and mow out the oats later in the Summer.
You just have to beware...drought can rear its ugly head!
Jeff, When managing does should manage based on the 2 doe groups that are on a property year round? Or the 4 doe groups that are there in the fall? Thanks
I'm from the government and I'm here to help. 😰No thanks no help needed. 😮 Jeff Help!
😂
Would love to get a link to that jawbone study and learn more about it's accuracy (or lack thereof)
It was an online article from many years ago...I'm sure it can be found with enough searching 😉 I kept that chart because that was the important part 👍
Do you guys do phone calls i have a property thats kinda different from most its kinda 3 piece put together on a camp so its got to function as the camp then deer second the property 80acres in the middle with 2 40acres pieces on top of hills
hey jeff i got a bad dog problem with my neighbors does that effect deer movement have u ever had that problem thanks for everything u give us
I have the same issue,,following
Where do you buy your seed mix Jeff?
Hi Hayden!
www.whitetailhabitatsolutions.com
This weather change your plans on planting?
No...I won't plant until months from now
My 100 acre property seems to be sectioned into 4ths front to back by the deer. Meaning I don’t see the same bucks in the front as I do the back. Is that normal?
That is normal on good deer parcels ...which are not very common! It means you have an older age structure of bucks AND, well separated deer habitat that compliments the entire parcel.
Great stuff! Thank you, Jeff. Go Lions!

So "don't trust the science" in exchange for "trust me, the guy that stands to profit"
Big mask and social distance guy eh?
Yeah, he actually has to get results from his work to get money, government gets the money regardless.
Hey...I only get paid or have a voice if I'm right. It's my job to bring correct information and I don't let anything stand in my way. I also have enough experience to know better...and that being said, I deliver it all to the public for FREE 👍 You don't have to spend a dime.
So true...
