GloryBound Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 It's been dry and hot. What are your thoughts on the upcoming season? I had January and February pictures of some great deer from Wood County that made it through last season. Looks like the mast crop may not be as good as the past couple of years.

Five0pd310 Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I think they'll be fine. They're probably just hugging more closely to water sources than normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatum_DirtyBird Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I have lots of oaks and lots of white oaks with a decent water source. I haven't put corn out in a couple of years and got pics of a pretty nice deer just after last season ended. I have yet to get my camera back out since.

Bock Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I think this year will be okay...critters of all kinds should be drawn to food plots/feeders with the lack of natural food sources due to the drought... next year and subsequent seasons might see some problems with the low production of fawns and their survival rates that may be down due to drought.....

I've seen some nice bucks up here in Red River Co. Have a couple of bucks and several doe on my game cam over the past 30 days or so, that are in bad body condition. Some of the does may not make the winter. Have feeders going as fast as I can afford the corn and planted several acres of winter grazing for the deer.
