During deer hunting season, hunting food sources can be a good technique for harvesting whitetail deer.
In farmland, deer like to work over fields looking for grains spilled during the harvest. They also look for new green shoots from winter cover crops such as winter wheat, which can be growing through or under snow cover.
Winter food is available but the deer need to work harder and move around more often. Look for a food source the deer are using that is not depleted yet. Set up your tree stand or your deer hunting ground blind nearby. During the later part of the deer hunting season, the deer move from food source to food source at all times of the day. So plan your deer hunt so you are in your deer hunting tree stand or ground blind all day.
Being prepared to sit all day could put in front of a big late season buck.
