We have a creek and a number of large swamps on or bordering our property. Natural travel for deer seems to be north/south along the creek ridge (not the bottoms) or around the swamps on the high ground. We really only see crossing of the creek done at night or the peak of the rut when things are hot and heavy.
My question is, with the use of hinging, can you do enough to change the deer patterns to go through a swamp or cross a creek? Or, will deer do what is 'natural' and find a spot through your hinging to take the high road? What are the best methods to changing deer movement patterns?
