Right now in MN we have no snow that makes it hard, there is still plenty of browsing to do in the woods. this makes it tough to determine a main food source. As soon as we get a little snow they will retreat to the corn, we have plenty of it standing yet due to a wet fall. After it snows i like to throw a portable on my back and backtrack trails a little ways and set up. This way you know you are where the deer are. I am still bowhunting.
