Thread: Winter hunting

Get into it, They dont run away, but they do slow down in their movements and eating and live on the sunny side of the hills. Public land is a bit harder to find them but once you do its like going to the pantry. They will have their wintering/yarding up spots. When you find the spots its like you have just walking into a pen where a mob of sheep have been, prints and shit everywhere. Even if you find a wintering spot and no deer (cos you may have spooked them) they will likely be back. Have a few places that i go in winter, also a great time to reccy, they will start moving some more from the winter spots come the warmer days. You will find they will hang in the summer there too as there will be a gd supply of food. Certainly hunting private is much easier as they have less hunting preasure, but again cant resist a checky bit of time in the sun even if there are a few of their mates that go missing on a daily or weekly basis.

Good luck
