I have seen every buck that I passed last year- this year. As well as some new mature bucks that appear to have moved into the center ofour 1000acres. I guess because they see veeeeery little pressure, have crops, apples, grapes, sugar plumbs, acorns water and plenty of security cover
.
Piggy, the nice 10pt that I have posted photos of, last year I passed him as a wide 8pt, in the middle of October. Now, he is becoming a brute.
Our land is not public and is bordered by one of North NJ's largest park systems, that is CLOSED to hunting. So, I think we see deer year after year because the area is extremely rural and the deer have our 1000acres, plus thousands of park acres to hide.
Come on DT, EVERY ONE of them??? Probably a bit of an exaggeration, but if you have 1,000 acres, you should have some pretty good ones especially if there is little outside pressure.
