When you put in the food plot we have discussed for next season, you will know where they will be............that's for sure. I'd feel pretty confident in my ability to tag a buck at my place in PA right now..........I just don't have a tag there. The last night I was in PA I counted 5 deer on the plot in front of my camp including one stud of a buck, and 7 more deer in the plot across the road from there.

Dan's place in NY does have lots of plots, but no brassica or other cold weather plots that were large enough to produce forage this late unfortunately. This is where I am looking for ideas, their clover plots seem to be getting a little browse after dark but other than that the movement during daylight is limited at best. Dan's place also gets a LOT more gun pressure than my place (my place has only been gun hunted 2x in the last 3 years), so the deer there are educated well by now.

The drive seems like a great idea but honestly I'd rather eat tags than push the sanctuaries we have worked so hard to create.

I'd love to hear what GregH, or Troy, or Buckeye has to say........hopefully one of they will pop in and share some words of wisdom.
