Deer hunting: How to find the pay zone!

Targeting primary trails, where deer are comfortable during the day, is a major asset to keep in mind. Taking the time to prospect your territory is the key to success. As well as being great fun, it’s an essential activity for hunters who want to study and understand the habits of this game animal. A good method is to record hoofprints, droppings, ground scratches and tree rubbings. These clues reveal the areas used by deer to feed, move around and rest. In this video, we’re looking for specific clues: deer tracks, heads of young shoots that have been eaten and, of course, fresh droppings. Beware: some courses are covered with very dry, fibrous droppings. In this case, it’s highly likely that the roads are only used in winter when hunting is closed. The droppings of deer Here are some of the possible differences between the droppings of deer in summer and autumn:Consistency: In summer, when deer generally have access to abundant, water-rich food, their droppings may be softer and wetter. In winter, on the other hand, vegetation becomes scarcer and conditions more difficult. They can be firmer and drier. deer in summer can contain a greater quantity of fresh, green plant matter, as deer tend to feed mainly on leaves, grasses and tender plants during this period. In autumn, the droppings may contain remnants of more mature plants and acorns, as the deer prepare for the winter period and turn more to energy-rich foods.In summer, the deer has access to a wide variety of food, as plants are abundant and rich in nutrients. They feed mainly on grasses, leaves, tender shoots, flowers and fruit. During the hottest hours of the day, deer tend to seek out shady spots to rest and cool off. They retreat to dense woods, thickets or areas of dense cover where they can protect themselves from the sun and feel safe.https://www.facebook.com/lapechedansl…https://www.facebook.com/groups/20458…https://www.instagram.com/la_peche_da…https://chasseetpechedanslapeau.com/
