paulcarol+FollowWhen’s the best time to dig a deer waterhole? 💦🦌Put in my first waterhole this spring, right after a few days of rain. Soil was soft enough to dig without heavy equipment, and I figured the earlier the better so deer could find it before summer dried things out. I’ve noticed more movement near that area already, especially in the evenings. Hoping it’ll help build a more huntable pattern by early season. Curious—anyone else have success with waterholes? #hunting #DeerHunting #WildlifeManagement #HuntingPrep55Share
paulcarol+FollowThe #1 deer water hole mistake hunters makeJust finished scouting for my next water hole project! Don't just dig anywhere - find natural low spots near bedding areas or travel corridors. Made the mistake last season putting one too close to open field... deer felt too exposed. Sweet spot? Just inside treeline with thick cover on two sides for quick escapes. Anyone else had luck with different setups? #hunting #DeerHabitat #HuntingTips #WildlifeManagement189Share
paulcarol+FollowIs hunting helping or hurting wildlife?Always wondered—do hunting and conservation actually go hand in hand, or are they in conflict? Curious how others see it, especially with all the habitat work hunters do.🤔 #hunting #WildlifeManagement #ConservationFacts #HuntingEthics2941Share
Manuel Bright+FollowI dug a pond on my hunting land💧 So I decided to dig a small waterhole on my hunting property last year, and guys... this has been absolutely incredible for tracking during hunting season! Not only does it keep deer on my land year-round, but during those brutal summer droughts when deer hit water sources multiple times a day, I can predict their movement patterns so much better. The trails around my waterhole are like highways now! Anyone else tried this? 🦌 #hunting #DeerHunting #HuntingProperty #TrackingTips #WildlifeManagement11026Share
paulcarol+FollowSpent 3 hours driving to find huntable land yesterday 😤Anyone else struggling with land access? Public spots are overcrowded while farmers complain about deer/hog damage but don't know hunters. We used to just knock on doors, but that's weird now. Imagine an app connecting hunters with landowners who need pest control - win-win situation! Hunters get access, farmers get free management. What's the biggest hunting problem you face that tech could actually solve? #hunting #privateland #landaccess #huntingcommunity #wildlifemanagement109Share
