RE: Are we going about this all wrong?
I guess what I am saying is that the closer yoiu can get to meeting all of a whitetails needs on a certain property, the more luck you will have holding them. Ag fields are great for nutrition, but these are destination feeding areas that are mainly visited after dark. This does not do you much good on mature bucks, EXCEPT knowing what direction theymight be traveling. You need bedding areas, staging areas, and maybe some small hunting food plots they can browse in on the way to their destination plots. Try and manage the bucks daylight time, that is whats important to the hunter.
