Summer Fun

During the summer, it's useful to put out some camera's along with some time in the woods looking for sign and all.  If your lucky, you might even see a fawn.  By now though, most fawns are able to go with their mother wherever she goes.  But here are some things to do during the summer:

  • Swimming: Swimming is a great way to have fun and exercise as well!
  • Fish: Everyone knows how great fishing is, need I say more?
  • Scouting: It's a cliche, but it's always useful.  The cool thing about this time of year is you get to see what time and where those fawns are out with their mom and how big those bucks antlers are getting! I've been lazy so far and I want more pictures of Missy and her new fawns!
  • Management: Predator management anyone?  Not to mention habitat and deer herd management (seeing what bucks are there, which to target/take, how many does to take, if any.  And so on).  But not just deer.  Out west, it's elk (or pronghorn!) management!  If your up north, that could include moose as well!
There are many more things I could mention, such as: treestand placement/maintenance, target shooting, bow tuning, sighting in a scope, setting up mineral sites, trail cameras, and more!

With all this mentioned, have fun!
