Do this in June for a better fall hunt! 🦌📷

I know it’s summer, but for those of us living that year-round hunter life—you know it's trail cam time. 🦌 June’s when I start scouting with cameras. Bucks are in velvet, feeding hard, and patterns are just starting to show. Here’s what works for me: 1️⃣ Mount cams 3–5 ft high and angle them at 45° to the trail 2️⃣ Never face them east or west—sun triggers are no joke 3️⃣ Use solar + cell cams if you can, way less disturbance 4️⃣ Check only every few weeks to avoid spooking the herd Already spotted a few does on my cams this week—hoping to catch my target buck from last season soon. Anyone else setting cams already? What’s your summer setup look like? #hunting #offseasonhunting #trailcameratips #deerhuntingprep

5 Game-Changing Tips to Stay Hidden from Waterfowl

Just had my best duck season yet thanks to these concealment secrets from Ducks Unlimited biologist John Coluccy! Waterfowl have vision 2-3x better than humans and can see colors we can't even imagine - here's how to outsmart them: 1️⃣Cover those faces and hands! Your exposed skin is like a flashlight to ducks. Face masks and gloves are non-negotiable, especially when you're moving in the blind. 2️⃣Match your surroundings perfectly. I've learned the hard way that dark brown camo in light cover makes you stick out like a sore thumb. On overcast days, this becomes even more critical. 3️⃣Use shadows strategically. Natural shadows are your best friend, but that layout blind shadow? Total giveaway. Try digging a shallow depression or using elevated decoys to break up your outline. 4️⃣Stay still even when birds are leaving. With eyes on the sides of their heads, ducks can see almost 360 degrees. Don't get caught moving when you think they're gone! 5️⃣Create distractions. Motion decoys and strategic blind placement can keep their attention off you and on your spread. #waterfowlhunting #duckhunting #huntingtips #hunting
