Planning for 2025-2026 Hunting Season

[buckbstr_1]

How are you planning for next season? I made a list of things to do before summer. Planning on setting out more stands, food plot planning, figure out camera locations.

A list that never ends. Picked up a new farm so going to learn it. And probably will pick up one more. Stands tractor work habitat work cameras food plots the list is long and never ever ends.

My only plan is waiting for ever on September to get here

Dad and I have already started talking about corn/sunflower plots for deer and doves.

Gotta get some different lanes cut, and pre-sets hung as well.

 

[PickettSFHunter]

I have plans to clear another food plot. I'm in the middle of doing some timber stand improvement. I need to remove lots of hogs also.

I picked up 100 acres a couple of hours from the house so I'm sure ill be spending a lot of time there and get somethings ready for the fall.

Scouting public land now.

 

[Buzzard Breath]

Same as @timberjack86 . Putting the miles on my boots on public. I did swing by the family farm this afternoon and take a quick look around.

 

[DeerMan66]

Reset some stands, replenish mineral locations, cut new shooting lanes and scout some new areas. All this before we get leaves. Oh, and scout some public that I discovered no one hunted this past season.

Cutting trees, planting trees, extending trail systems, building a barn.

Lots of scouting until green up then the focus turns to combating invasives. Probably put in another water hole, extending plots and possibly creating a couple more.

Going to plant lots of forbs and wild flowers. Considering a couple bee hives. Going to hang some bat boxes. Gona be a very busy off season.

I'll spend two weekends in February finalizing new stand sites that I picked during hunting season for hang-ons, and moving a few ladder stands. I'll also do major trail clearing to and from stands from a couple of directions to each. The stuff I'll be going through is super thick.

Other than hanging stands in late July, I'll stay out of those woods til mid October. I have plans for habitat improvements in about five years.

Scouting public land now.

Great time to do it. You can see a lot these next 90 days before green up.

I'm just agreeing with my brother and encouraging him to get the work done so I can hunt his property. Since he lives 700 miles away, it's the best I can do on a regular basis. And I'm not letting his broken back be used for an excuse.
