Default RE: Do you Turkey Hunt your deer properties ?

I still think you'd be alright DT. I don't know how much time you spend hanging and taking stands down, but surely it can't be more than like.... 14 days a year, max? Throughout the year (not during hunting season) deer calm down much quicker than any other time.

I do hunt some of the same places, but I don't generally hunt with a shotgun. I don't pressure these areas very heavily at all just because the birds are in the same places every year. The same setup works time and time again on the same properties so I don't really have to be all over the place to find birds. To me, pressuring deer is a continual thing... much more than a couple of days a month.

As for these:
Pressure deer during summer scouting/stand hanging.
My scouting is done from afar with binocs for the majority. Stand hanging is about 2-day deal.
Pressure deer duringbow season. Absolutely
Pressure deer during gun season. Not a bit
Pressure deer during post-season scouting/shed hunting. Slightly but not much
Pressure deer while removing stands. Again, all stands down in a couple of hours.
Pressure deer while turkey scouting. Nope
Pressure deer while turkey hunting. I'm in the woods so yes, but not necessarily pressuring them.

I sure do, but for the most but not all of the time, its on the outskirts of the wood line in fields.

I think you are giving deer just a taaaaaaaaad too much credit.

Yeah, i hunt alot of my properties for turkey as well as deer. I dont worry too much about pressuring them that time of year. Most of the time im hunting out in the field where deer arent really likely to be. I don't think im screwing anything up....

Like others have said, it just depends on how pressured your property is. I wouldnt let it keep you from turkey hunting though...

I don't but it's only because there are not many Turkeys where I Deer huntIn Nebraska I do but it's pretty vast and I'm sure it does not affect the Deer. I'll be fishing out there in June also
