I scouted the new 70 acre property yesterday. It's 10 minutes from home, placing it closest to me.
Sort of hunted by the 2 sons... They likely do more damage than good, but I think I can work around that. It does not sound like they hunt it much. The do however have a 4-wheeler and likely run it through the woods sometimes. The adjoining property is hunted, but that may also help me depending on how the access. I see them pushing deer my way.
The place has some potential. I will probably hunt 2-3 times this season to get a feel for things.
It does contain some field edges, a small ravine and creek. I'm sure I can take a deer there as long as the 2 sons play nice....
Once the timing is right, I will talk with them to make sure they are good with me there. I hate to impose, but I do have permission. The family seems pretty odd to say the least.
Time will tell!
