I was drawn for this two week hunt. The rules state you cannot contact the landowner...at all. You cannot be on the property to scout until it's your time to hunt. I have the first two week session. I've included the picture of the land. If you look the parking area is center left of the line...and next to that is currently a standing corn field. Don't know if it will still be standing. Straight up from the parking area is my first stand location (where I think it should be). At the far left corner of the property just off the corn field. I'll plan on hunting there from daybreak till lunch time. Head back to my truck and grab lunch and then walk the southern fingers of the lake to the potential stand location in the upper right hand corner. The area to the north (North is the top of the map...is a bean field. I know all this becasue the northern area border belongs to a guy that I shoot leagues with. (small world). Anyway his finances uncle owns it...
All of the stand locations in the timber area is the deers bedding area...especially the area that is trail on the lakes northern front. My friend states that he's bumped deer off their beds when he walks that area to fish. All of the area that looks like pasture is CRP and is the grass is 5-8 feet tall. I was told that the potential stand location at the top right of the corner and the one just beneath it is good, but that I have to get above 30 feet in the tree due to the grass being so thick. The markers are potential stand locations...What's everyone's opinion?
I've only been to this location once and I did not walk it...just stood on top of my truck toneau cover to try and see over the grass...it's tall and I'm short.
