I have a friend that bush hogs a trail through. The deer use for sure.


You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.

I think this will end up proving 100% correct! I would hypothesize that the deeper into the brush the opening, the better it may be.

There's a spot where this thick stuff comes up to mature hard woods. I'd think this could be hot in the early season before the pressure kicks up, especially if there's a white oak dropping food. Once the Late October pressure hits, I'm guessing I have to be in an opening, deeper into the brush, to be in the game.
