Strategy ( suggestions please)
Guys, Nov1 my hunting buddies and I are heading to our usual moose hunt in region 3. Last year we found a great deer and moose spot. My question is this: There will be 6 ATV's, and its one road up to our secret spot. On the way up and down we ALWAYS (Well at least last year) See deer in the first clearing. Its around a mile before our area of moose.
This is what I was thinking, Due to not wanting to hang around 5 other quads, I was thinking of building a tree stand and bringing an aluminum latter with me, and in this area where I have seen nice bucks in the past ( tons of does) Lean the ladder up against a tree with a view, screw in a nice comfy seat, and spend my time up the tree. Last year I saw a 5X5 in this spot, but due to us only passing threw this area to get to our moose spot, we never got anything there.
Up at the moose spot there area also bucks, we got a 4x4 last year, but again due to the amount of people and the deer i saw in this spot last year I figure its best for me to go with this tree stand idea?
Iw as thinking of rattling and the odd blee call from this stand as well. Also due to it being Nov 1 maybe the deer will be moving threw this spot all day?
What do you think? Would you do what I am thinking? I guess if I dont see anything first day I can joing the rest up further after the moose. By the way, we were lucky this year, we have TWO (2) Cow calf tags and ONE (1) Mullie doe tag for this area. SUGGESTIONS PLEASE!!!!
