I guess my main question is this. How wide can an area be that you would still consider a funnel.
In my photo below the area this buck has to travel through is less than 15 foot wide. It is just north of a fence crossing. Where the buck is positioned just a few feet to his right is a steep creek bank and just in front and to his left you can see the remnants of a short earth dam that used to be a small pond. This pond is now a swampy area that if you step in it you go right to your knees or deeper. This swampy area is fed by a spring that is in the rocks on the steep rocky hillside that shows on the left portion of the photo. I consider this the best funnel on my hunting area.
