Default RE: help me with my late season

I am certainly no expert, but I will offer some advice. I would put a stand or use a climber and set up straight south of the swamp and right near the corn field. I would not hunt it until about 2 to 3 weeks after gun season. I would want to be right on the edge of that corn. Once that is picked if the dirt isn' t turned, then it will be a hot food source. Deer prefer corn in the winter as it is high in carbs and that gives them more immediate energy then does protein sources. Also, I would focus on afternoon hunts as it is nearly impossible to to sneak into an area that holds big bucks in the morning during winter as with no foliage they will hear you and then see you and be certain not to return during daylight that day. Another option would be northeast of the pines as you might be able to catch deer traveling up toward the alphalfa fields. Good luck!
