OneStab,
I don't think we're competetion. Besides any board member is welcome to hunt with me.
The farms I am talking about are actually all in the York New Salem area.......I need to talk to "JimPic" and see where he's at. We might be hunting neighbors this season.

I have permission on a very nice farm North of Dover off of Conewago Rd. that I killed a nice 6pt and doe off of 2 seasons ago but it's getting just a bit too frustrating there as A LOT of guys hunt it.[&o]

Unless you actually OWN the property it is 99% impossible to have a spot to yourself in York Co.

Dave.....on the one farm at least i believe it IS a matter of maybe getting the jump. The farm is sandwiched between 2 state game lands and consists of 1 major thruway/bottleneck between a large crop field and a smaller grass field below with a creek in the bottom.
Any deer that wants to pass thru within the cover have 2 options........the 75 yard wide strip of cover bewteen the 2 fields, or the very small strip at the actual creek.
The main trail across the larger strip of cover between the 2 larger tracts of land and eventually the state game lands looks like a cattle trail beat down to bare mud 2 feet wide. There are a bunch of intersecting trails that head to the upper crop field but I think they will be of little consequence considering that the entire upper field this year is wheat.
The only corn in the area is at either end actually off of the property in the game lands areas.........if a deer wants to travel to and from these areas unless they travel in the open fields, must come right by me. anticipating the high pressure that the game lands get on either end, and that I am in the best cover about halfway in bewteen which I can slip into from the field above?.....it seems like a no brainer.
