i have an area of land that i've hunted hogs and turkey on. i've seen both on the land but i'm not sure if they're deer on the property. a friend of mine thinks that there are. i just wanted to know if ya'll had any suggestions on how to find out? i'm working on building a feeder to put up and i was thinking about also buying a cheap scouting camera to watch the feeder. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Just walk the area and look for tracks and old deer sign. Old rubs and last years scrapes should be visible.

first and easiest sign i look for is droppings,
pile means doe, scattered means buck,
among other signs i look for are scrapes and rubs,

also how is the layout,?
food? water? bedding areas?

a friend of mine and i looked around some and he says that we found a rub. he's probably right he knows what he's talking about. the area where i think there are deer has pretty open pine, with very thick thickets, with easy access to a shallow lime pit that holds a good bit of water.

Hunter, you're 50 miles from me. Have you ever hunter
around Lake Panasoffkee? There is a WMA there. It's close to
you.

no, i've never deer hunted in florida. i usually just hunt hogs and turkey on private land down here. i deer hunt up in kentucky, but we found a little deer sign and i thought since it was like 15 miles from me on private land it would be worth a shot.

Deer Love the feeling of mud on their feet. So what you sould do is take a little section about 10' ft by 10' ft and turn all the soil over and then just sit back and wait for them to come. Its a great way to see whats on your land.
