I just got back from a few hour walk through the property with my eight year old..... investigating what the recent snow had to tell us and I certainly got quite an education. This is the first season I have hunted the property at our new home, and normally in New England, we have snow sometime during the season. Not this season...... it didn’t come til the season closed. Although my stands where pretty close to being on point, I see now some major travel routes that didn’t jump out at me when scouting last season. These deer are only foraging on mast so it can be difficult to do something as simple sounding as pinpoint food sources. Finding those runs that the terrain and wind trends have dictated the deer to use for hundreds of years....... the runs they just can’t keep off of, is key. I feel like I have a whole new outlook on the property and how to hunt it for next year and I can’t wait. Here are a couple that make the hit list for 2022......
