RE: Hot weather corn field tactics
Returned from my hunt in the sunny mid west last night. Sure hope yall get a temp break this week.
Most corn in surrounding farms was out. Our beans and corn was still in.
It was 92 degrees!
Acorns were everywhere, couple of white oaks dropping.
I hunted a water hole 30 yds off a corn field 1 morning and 1 night and white oaks 1 night.
Nothing came to the water, but I did pass ona young 9 point eating acorns heading to the fields at dusk.
I got a lot of scouting done. We saw 3 young bucks,one 3 1/2 yr old 8 pt. 1 booner.
We are very excited about our return trip in Nov. This had to be the worst possible week to hunt (hot, lots of food and no reason for the deer to move), and we still saw a great shooter.
