Stayin' Summer-like

We've got more summer-like temps in that forecast for the weekend. And with the hot weather, some places are really seeing slow deer activity! Other places, the deer movement is just as hot as the weather! Be sure to give yourself some extra time to get out and do some scouting on your way in and out of the stand to find those active areas! This weekend might be a bit warm for hunting, but it could make for a great opportunity to fine tune the details on your stand placement. Also, cool air settles into valleys, so if you have a stand in a big, shady draw, that might be the bucks first choice. These areas can be 10-15 degrees cooler than surrounding terrain! Harvest continues unabated in this dry weather, so the odds of seeing a nice mature deer are going up every day!
