Ask Andrae???

Unread postby dan » Sat Aug 25, 2012 11:30 am

I am going to Interview Andrae tomorrow for a big DVD project we are working on... If I can get the interview done in a timely fashion I might have time for some additional questions... Any body want an opinion on something straight from Andrae?

Could you ask Andrae how many "spots" he hunts (or has a plan of hunting) during the course of a year and how many hours he spends scouting in a normal year?

It has been touched on a little bit, but I would like to know how he uses his trail cameras such as scouting purposes. Thanks Dan.

How does he deal with trespassers and what is the furthest he will let an arrow fly at a deer?

I would like to know if he were to spook a buck accidently, would he automatically move on to a different bed location on his next hunt or if he would back out and give that location another shot on his next hunt,knowing it bedded there with the current conditions. Or would he move to another bed automatically assuming the buck moved on to a different bed right away? How often a spooked buck returned to the same bed the next day or within a few days. I understand the bump and dump tactic but I think a buck would return to that bed knowing the bed was working in those conditions. If that makes any sense?

I would like to ask, if he found a deer later in the year, like this time of the year or during hunting season. On unfamilar territory. How would he go about hunting this animal?

I would be curious if he has a hard time now setting goals for himself (as far as big buck goals) and what is his next goal in big buck hunting is.

I'd be interested in hearing his ideal wind setups OUTSIDE THE RUT. Meaning, does he generally put the wind in his face (safest) or does he like to set up with just an off wind to give the buck a sense of security? (risky) Or will anywind not blowing to the buck in his bed acceptable? And if extreme hunting pressure vs light pressure makes a difference?

One word question. Bigwoods?

I know Andrea started out in the bigwoods so an insite or advice would be taken to heart. Probably a bad question to ask because it really deserves its own video but just to hear Andrea, Dan, Magic or a few others talk about bigwoods in great detail would be cool. I suspect this is for something farm related ;) but I just had to throw it out there.

How does he scout so successfully all these properties he hunts scattered in several states? I understand he may have more time available since he sold the business but it still takes a lot of time. Also, it can be physically challenging too. On top of it how does he select which property holds the best chance for him to score on his next big buck. Speed scouting techniques? Thanks!
