RE: DEALING WITH DEER HUNTING PRESSURE
I kill alot of big bucks on heavly pressured public lands in Wisconsin. I am even releasing a DVD aboutthat topiclater this summer. I concentrate mainly on marsh's and swamps where gun hunters can't kill all the young bucks doing deer drives before these deer can get old enough to grow big racks. The biggest deer are generally the ones who surrvived a few seasons. They have found small over looked spots in the area where people rarly go. Sometimes every body walks right by a small patch next to the road that holds a monster. Somtimes its in the middle of the marsh. The key is to hunt very close to where the big ones bed and kill them on your 1st attempt before he smells you have been there. That means you have to be mobile and move around alot. I do alot of scouting in the winter locating these hidden hotspots and mapping them for my fall hunt. You can still see the sign real well with post season scouting before green up occurs.
