Strategies for dealing with other hunters
Has anybody ever considered creating "fake" deer sign to fool other hunters? The farm I hunt is basically public land - the farmer lets anybody hunt who asks. I'm constantly having other hunters move in on me. I set up my stands in July, and these guys come in the first week of November and throw up ladder stands and bait pilesright next to me and screw up my prime spots right before the rut starts.
I bet if I loaded up the other end of the property with dozens of fake scrapes and about 30 rubs, these guys would fall for it and leave me alone LOL! [8D]
