    The only issue there is I had a delineation survey done when I first bought the property and they said I could build a bridge across the creek as long as it was bank to bank. Anything within the creek banks would require approval from the Army Corps of Engineers and it didn’t sound like it would...

    Thanks. I’m fairly pleased although I do have some multiflora and Japanese honeysuckle to take care of. I looked into a prescribed burn with the local forester but if they can’t get a bulldozer in there, they won’t likely do it. No bulldozer is getting across my little bridge. [emoji23] Not to...

    Pinetag's Plot - 43 acres in Virginia

    Yea, trying to target 4.5’s is just not realistic for my property/my area. 3.5 is what I’m going for also. After I shot the 9, I told myself that the only other buck I would shoot was my #1. If either of the other big 8’s came by they were getting a pass because 1) I don’t want to be greedy and...

    Pinetag's Plot - 43 acres in Virginia

    Yea, I didn’t expect them all to make it, but I was hoping at least one would. I try to keep my expectations realistic and I know of at least one good survivor that was 2.5 or maybe 3.5 this year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I recently did some post season scouting and was able to walk the cutover. I found some good stuff growing… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Pinetag's Plot - 43 acres in Virginia

    Thanks! Unfortunately I think all of my target bucks got killed because I had each of them consistently from Sep - Nov and then they all disappeared. I got a pic of my #1 buck moving through the horseshoe plot just before dark on 11/3. He was headed toward the bean field across the road and then...

    Pinetag's Plot - 43 acres in Virginia

    My plans for this year are to girdle the southern trees around my food plots and bedding pockets, create some new deer trails to and around my improvement areas, try to expand my horseshoe plot, set some more mock scrapes, add some screening along the pasture trail, and cut in additional...

    Pinetag's Plot - 43 acres in Virginia

    I haven’t done an update in a while so here is how my season went and where things are headed. Over all 2023 was a good season! 1) I started the season with 3 mature bucks (3.5 yo) that I was getting consistently on camera and I picked up a 4th in mid Oct 2) Daylight buck activity was the best...

    Pinetag's Plot - 43 acres in Virginia

    I was able to get out for another hunt yesterday with a buddy of mine. We got skunked in the morning but had a flurry of activity in the evening. I ended up seeing 3 does with 4 fawns (3 of which were button bucks) and then had an encounter with a decent buck an hour before last light. He stayed...
