Deer Hunting

Farmers Crops

Uploaded on October 20, 2009

With the crazy weather that NorthEast Indiana has been having this year the farmers are having the worst trouble getting their crops out this year than in recent years that I can remember. They have just now started to cut beans and the corn is still standing. I know that there are a ton of deer on the 400+acres that I get to hunt but trying to get them to come out of the corn and into the woods during shooting hours is impossible. The rut should start here around the first 2 weeks of November but I am not convinced that the corn will still be off with rain forcasted for the end of this week, and the guys needing to get the beans off so they can plant wheat for next summer. How do you get the big bucks to where you are? Doe esterus Dominant Buck Pee what would you do?

You just have to be patient. I am in the same boat here in Michigan, and some of my best years have been where I have had corn and crops standing for a long time. It isn't to late for those farmers to plant winter wheat if they want, that stuff is tough and comes up in a hurry.

I know what you mean. I am in Indiana too and only a few of the surrownding corn fields have been harvested. Usually they are all don by now. .....but I just kept hunting and I already tagged a HUGE 8-pointer. A good strategy for this situation is to hunt doe trails and use estrous scent. The bucks that are really horny and ready to breed are now following the doe trails and will come to the doe scent. I did this and it paid off. Good luck and good huntin'!
