If the ever elusive mature whitetail is SO finicky.......why does he seemingly tolerate these things.....yet continue to call this place "home"?
Because there are little to NO areas where they can avoid being pressured, and they have to live somewhere. The only place a deer is going to not be pressured around here would be at the bottom of a lake
And more specifically regarding my areas....the 4-5 times I venture into them during turkey are nothing compared to the quads, the landowner, tresspassers, & other hunters that go thru them about 4 thousand times over the course of a year.
