Small Property Bow Hunting | Designing Your Small Deer Hunting Property
G5 Outdoors is powered by Stone Road Media
One thing we do very well as bow hunters is pay attention to the details. Whether it’s the color of your peep sight, speed and penetration of your arrow and broadhead, or the accessories you put on you bow…the details matter! Deer, especially mature bucks couldn’t agree with us more. Deer are particular and, knowingly or not, select for desirable habitat and conditions. Unfortunately it takes a lot of land to give a buck everything he desires. Fortunately that statement couldn’t be more wrong! A small property, when designed and managed correctly, can be a whitetail and bow hunting paradise!
January, the start of the off season for many, is the perfect time to start designing (or re-designing) your property. The advantage, besides the now available time in the off season, is working with a skeleton of your property. It is an empty shell right now, bare food plots, minimal cover, and leftover deer sign from the rut are all the remains. This makes it the perfect time to scout and adjust the elements of your property maximize bow hunting success.
This 70 acre property resembles what you might encounter a lot in the Midwest. A small, abandoned farm or pasture that has grown to be a whitetail refuge in a land filled with open crop fields.
