Very nice! Are most of these deer taken off the same properties or are you constantly pounding on doors for better land? or are some of them public?

how would you catagorize the places you kill them? 50/50 woods/crops, urban, forest?

Rochester coops -

Every property I hunt is different. Most are private. I do hunt some public - but it is usually with a group of guys and we do small pushes. I do some stand hunting on public also but haven't taken anything really big off of public. I have seen quite a few and actually screwed up on a few and taken some good ones, but nothing great. I haven't put enough time or energy into it - and most of it comes down to convenience. I need to save every minute that I can glassing, shed hunting, or hunting - and no public is close enough for that.

Most of these deer are on a couple of different properties. I haven't shot any of these deer out of the same tree. Some properties are letters in mailboxes, others are relationships I have had for years with the owner, and others are properties I heard about from someone - friend of a friend that I got permission from or something. Unfortunately, I do not have any property of my own and I do not have sole permission to hunt at any of the properties I hunt. I don't have money to pay anyone to hunt - if it came to that, I would find somewhere else to hunt. I hunt one big parcel of land a lot where I have taken some good deer, and then some smaller parcels. In regards to the make-up of the land, some of it is fields, clearings, CRP, creek bottoms, oak flats, thickets, pine stands, etc. If there is a big one there , I will try to figure out a way to hunt it. Most people on here would call some of the areas I hunt urban. MD is a very highly populated state, but the deer here are never really restricted to a certain area and at times they have access to a lot of ground.

Great deer man. Sounds like you really put in the time and effort for every single one of those deer. I love how detailed you are in recalling all of your scouting and approaches. Looking forward to your 2012 reports/kills
