It’s All in the Details

The first step in killing an early-season buck is to locate one that is consistently putting itself in position to be hunted effectively. Throughout the first half of September, and sometimes even later, bachelor groups of bucks can be found rather predictably mornings and evenings feeding in agricultural fields. This pattern actually starts by mid-summer, giving bowhunters plenty of time to scout and identify target bucks long before opening day.

If a doe has female offspring from the previous year, they will often rejoin the mother and fawns to form a small family group until the following spring. During this time of plenty, witnessing young fawns’ playful behavior alongside their mothers and other does is a beautiful bonus to time spent outdoors.

The concept of patterning Whitetails is not new. Our grandfathers did it naturally as they were afield farming or logging.

They observed bucks as they went about their workdays, making mental notes of where and when the Whitetails appeared. For those who farm today and who hunt on their own property...

In July, fawns are becoming more active and spending more time with their mothers. They are also developing their ability to keep up with their mothers and move quickly to avoid perceived threats. It's common to see them walking or bounding alongside their mothers, or even exploring on their own. While they might be seen alone at times, their mothers will return to nurse them and check on them, usually several times a day.
