BB - the South of the field is a swampy thick area and the East is a brushy thick area. Both good problems to have. Below is a picture from the East side looking towards the “destination field” it’s about a 60 yard buffer between this plot I cut into the brush. This area has always held deer. When I first decided to make the big field a destination spot I would not hunt I was somewhat apprehensive about the deer movement. Hunting this year and watching deer movement I no longer have that concern. The deer use this small long plot as a staging or transition zone while waiting to go out into the big field. They browse the brush and snack on the plot.
With having bedding on both ends of the food, and pretty good cover I get to watch bucks cruise all times of the day between those bedding areas. Most of the bucks that come looking in that brush cruise along that edge.
