How do you hunt nocturnal deer. Yea, I know "With a spotlight". But
seriously what can I do to get them moving in the day besides drives?
My theory is the dog hunters on the adjacent property caused this situation.

I'm having the same problem where I hunt. Here feeders are legal and the deer do not show up to the feeders till dark.
So yesterday I decided to rattle, well within minutes I rattled up a doe, moved locations and once again rattled up three does, so i took one home with me,
hehe!

Will ratling work when the deer are a long time away from rutting? The deer in South Miss don't rut till late Jan or Feb. But if I can call one up by rattling on Nov,Iwillsure start trying torattle.

On does especially, deer are very curious, bucks may come into rattling even if they are not rutting. Bucks will spar way before the rut, but during the rut is when they really fight hard.
Dont be fooled on rattling during the rut only, rattling can work the whole deer season.
I like to do a lot of tree scraping with the horns and light rattling at this time, later I'll really bang the horns.
