How many have added water to their hunting spot ? Have a couple spots near a small creek but, our main stand doesn't have water right there. Curious to how many have brought in water or if it's that big of a deal. Have an auto feeder set up, minerals, & thinking about adding a mock scrape (great sticky on that !) but, am wondering if I should add water. Thoughts..?
GregH put a nice watering hole on his property that gets hit pretty hard. My property is covered in water, but the deer still visit any little pools we create.
I have alot of water on my ground,yet I see deer drinking out of holes of water the size of my foot in the fields even when there is spring creeks 100 yards away.
Depends on how far a water source is from your main stand. I wouldt start with a water tray and cam to see how many even need water right there
I put this in 15 years ago and the silly thing sucks them in daily. At least 5 book bucks and 75 baldies taken here. Easiest enhancement to make.
Adding a water hole can do nothing but good for your land. Im lucky enough to have a creek running through my hunting property which really helps in stand placement.
I put a bottle of water out there once. But isn't that considered "baiting"? sent from my electronic carrier pigeon
