Need your opinion - to corn or not to corn? - 10/31/14 01:08 PM
I like to over analyze everything. Critical character flaw, I suppose.
I'd like the thf's thoughts on my game plan for Sunday a.m. The below is an aerial of my land with the following legend:
Blue Stars = Feeders
Green Arrow = Entrance to my land
Yellow Star = My stand
Blue Line = Proposed corning route driven by truck
Purple Line = Proposed corning route walked on foot after parking
Red Line = Everything to the west of this is tall grass that deer bed in. I can see them from my elevated stand, but barely. They don't notice you when they're in there.
Do you guys think if I following my corning routine an hour and a half before legal shooting it will disrupt the property too much? Deer definitely party in that entire field I'll be circling at night. The total size of my property is 80 acres.
Also of note: there is a good place to park the truck where it's barely viewable even 10 yards away, so that's not really an issue. There are always tractors and trucks and cutters and hay bailers in this field, so the animals don't really spook from vehicles to terribly easily.
I want your thoughts. They are valuable to me.
