Even wary, late-season bucks might have an Achilles heel. Here’s how to take advantage.
If September is the best month to harvest does and October’s rut is the best chance to tag a buck, then what does that make the remainder of deer season?
By now, every whitetail in the woods has been educated about the presence of man by his scent and forays into the woods. Still-hunting is certainly not ruled out for the rest of the season — it will still be effective when hunger or weather come into play — but sneaky or aggressive game plans are often the best bet when targeting pressured deer.
It’s no secret that one of the surest methods for late-season success is to plant a food plot that matures in the late fall and early winter. The sneaky part of this equation is that you don’t want to hunt the area until the crop matures and the deer are using it. If you want to capitalize late in the season, you need to stick to the game plan and save that stand — you’ll be glad you did.
