I have a dilemma I have been hunting some land in south Ga. that consists of young planted pines with a mix of small thick hardwoods. Now when I say this stuff is thick I mean thick. It is to thick to sit in a ladder or climbing stand and when you sit on the ground you can see maybe 35-45 yards in some places. There is a very large creek that runs thru the property with some mature hardwoods but it is very difficult to get to this area without having to walk a mile or making alot of noise. The land is very hilly. I went in to some areas earlier this year with a machette and pruned some of the pines to make shooting lanes and this seems to help some. But this spooked the deer last year,and I am afraid it is going to have the same affect this year. There are roads on some of the land and I have been setting up stands and blinds on these hoping to catch the deer crossing on them. I have been hunting for about 14 years but I have never encountered land this difficult to hunt before. The deer are there, I put out my trail camera last year and am happy to say i got more pictures of bucks than does. I got several pics of a 2 very nice 8 pointers and a 9 pointer who may have been a 10 that needs to be on my wall along with probably 8 other smaller bucks. The problem is I am not seeing these deer. It is to thick to get to where they are without alerting them to my presence. I would appreciate any tips or suggestions from anyone that has had this similar problem or anyone who has any excperience in hunting this type of land.
