Remind me again what PETA members do for fun? Nothing on this level. Incredible hunt. Great that you shared with your kid. Just a few years and I'll be sharing these lessons with mine. Thanks for documenting this hunt.
My dad went hunting in Missouri to the North east I told him about you guys and he said you guys were close to where they where keep up the good hunting!
As a veteran I say thank you for supporting us. We do what we do so others don't have to. Good lord willing I will be able to finally be able to get a deer this year. Thanks for the tips and ideas. God bless.
Congrats on the clean harvest! Just finished patterning a three year old eight pointer with easily 120" of antler. Can't wait for my turn to bag a buck! Good luck!
Sorry I didn't get to finish my comment . Sometimes after get and take what we have owner land for granted Then a watch your videos and at the end of your videos more times than not it brings me back to being thankful
I have a pretty good food plot been very dry here in northern Indiana I got a lot of matare bucks here very hard to hunt them hope to get one this weekend I been doing some doe manage here to many does here on my property and neighbors property
Leaving Louisiana and heading to Salem, Mo. to hunt family farm for Nov. gun opener this weekend. Living 10 hrs away I have no idea how the rut is running this year Do you think the bucks will be in lock down next week? I know last year the rut must've been a little later cause we actually saw some chasing going on that week. That is usually not the case. Thanks PS. Keep the great informative videos coming
Scott - Actually the rut is during the same time each year as fawns are born during the same time. Sometimes we see more activity than others. Missouri's gun season shifts by one day each year. This year there should be some chasing going on as not all does will be bred by this weekend!
Amazing! I’ve been watching you for so long growing deer tv you’ve made me the hunter I am today I just got my first buck in October, a 10 pointer thank you for inspiring me (I’m 15 btw)
I'm hunting on 9 acres at the moment cause I was tired of hunting big fields and in the past week I have gotten multiple bucks on camera and numerous scrapes in the area and I love watching these vids
Great video as usual!! How big of a property do you need to make it worthwhile to go through the effort of deer and land management? Where I live (IL, close to St. Louis), land is crazy expensive and I wonder if I’m better off just paying an outfitter each year, or buying a small piece of property (maybe 20 acres) we can actually afford on a military (wife) and civil service (me) income. I’m an adult onset hunter and started hunting b/c my son took an interest at a young age. My son took his first deer (a doe) on public ground this year and I’ve only ever harvested small bucks and some does. Thanks!
IMO, that decision lies within what about deer hunting you find fun. However, against what many new hunters may believe, the fun in hunting isn't derived solely from the end goal of a harvest, but rather from the individual relationship you build with the animals you hunt. If you can afford to spend the time and money to spend on your own land (or lease), DO IT! Enjoy the ride.
Dave - Congratulations to you son and thanks to you and your wife for your service to our nation! Hunting public land can be very fun! However, owning land and watching it improve due to your planning and work is very fun and rewarding to most! The size of the property necessary depends on your deer management objectives and the habitat and hunting preferences in the neighborhood! I have several friends with small properties that enjoy great hunting annually! Before you purchase a property, I strongly recommend having someone else review it to see if it's meets your objectives. Given the state of our nation, I'd say owning land is a good move for any family!
I wish more people would watch and understand letting young bucks walk and bucks with messed up antlers walk.. I've already let 4 bucks walk that most people will probably shoot..but if I shoot them there's no chance for them to get any better
Myself and a friend who I have been hunting with for 25 years Have 500 acres to Hunt we have numerous black bear ,turkeys and Nice mature bucks We have been managing for years.
How many neighbors do you think you would need to get with to cooperate towards an effort like this? Square mileage maybe? Hunting here in SE Texas on more less 30-150 acre plots, how may would wone need to talk to do you think? Thanks!
@@GrowingDeerTV wow... I thought you would need like 10 or 20 to cover the acerage one would cover during their life, and even more so the rut time. I'm sure during the rut, no number matters probably lol. Thanks for the response!

Great hunt and an awesome buck! Congratulations!

I hope you Dad had a great hunt!
@@GrowingDeerTVhe killed a 12 point bigger than bucks here in WV
In the battle of life, that would be called.... "A beautiful death." Nice shot
Thanks Roger!
Not trying to be that guy but it looked like a spine shot
@@carsyngoldner8045 Bit high, but it got the job done. 2 inches lower and it would have been a LONG track, though. I've been there.
Kicker ducked the shot a lot, more than it appeared at full-speed playback. I'd say ~6 inches.
@@carsyngoldner8045 true, but hey - you don't have to do a lot of work to find it!

@@GrowingDeerTV Thank you for the information! Who would you recommend reaching out to for this kind of review? QDMA folks, or someone else?
Great info on antler development in the first 4 minutes! I shared the video with a couple of people just b/c of that segment.
Cody - Thanks for sharing the episode!
Yeah buddy!! I get excited about your videos.
Thanks Rudy!
Congratulations on that great buck!! Hallelujah, and glory to God.
Excellent video!! 👍 Thank you!!!
AMEN
Thanks Keith!

Nice Eugene! Nathan hunts a small property in northern, Missouri.
Great buck!
Thanks!
My dad shot a deer that looks just like that
Gavin - Please tell your Dad congratulations!

That was a beautiful deer.
Eugene - Thanks!
Looks like he lost his kicker this year
Buck's antlers typically change a bit each year besides increasing in size!
Hopefully they do this in Michigan
🙄
Have a great hunt!
