How will you adjust this fall?
 

Most areas in the midwest have been wet this spring leading to crops being planted late. Here in Illinois, we are facing the possibility of having corn/beans standing until late October/early November. In the past few years, the corn has been gone by the first week of October. Our hunting tactics are definately going to have to adjust accordingly. What do you guys plan to do differently?

I dotn plan on doing anythign different this year.

My main spot will benefit if the corn is still up since it is a travel route from food to bedding. I will be just fine with a late harvest:D

If the weather around here doesn't change much it will be a very late corn harvest as well which will benefit me more being the gun hunters will have a tough time seeing deer because there will be to much corn standing all over. It sounds kind of bad with me saying that but my area really gets pounded during the rut from the gunners. Allot of corn standing will help that situation.

I won't change my ways of hunting just to much. If anything I might get a little closer to the field edges instead of hunting deeper in the woods being the deer will be in the corn during the rut if its not harvested yet.

They always get them in late in my area because of wet. They just planted the field around my house two days ago. This is the first year they no tilled it. should be the norm for me.

Hunt them like a viable food source. A week or so after the corn is cut, the deer are out of them around here. Combines today just don't leave very much on the ground anymore....The deer pick that clean pretty quickly. I'm hoping upon hoping that in one of my spots the beans are still green when season opens......Oh I hope I hope I hope...

I usually just go with the flow as the seasons and weather progress, but Im watching beans, acorns and corn more closely come the end of August.Right now its still a little to early to tell

Like mobow said, I will definately be trying my best to find a bean field that is still green come early October. This year, if a farmer does decided to double crop bean in wheat stubble, it should be a magnet the first half of October. I don't have much experience with stanind corn. It's usually gone after the first week of the season.

Grenades are an idea though! :)
