Eric shares his approach to hunting in September, focusing on the shift in deer behavior and the importance of speed scouting and being mobile.

They also discuss the challenges of hunting public land and dealing with limited access and time constraints. Eric emphasizes the importance of being aggressive and making informed decisions based on available intel. They also touch on the mental pressure and time crunch that hunters often feel towards the end of a hunt. Takeaways: September is a critical time for deer hunting, as the shift in deer behavior occurs with the change in food sources and the end of velvet shedding. Speed scouting and being mobile are key strategies for hunting in September, as deer patterns change rapidly during this time. Identifying water sources and deer concentrations can help hunters locate deer in new areas. Using decoys can be effective in attracting deer, especially during cold fronts or when deer are feeling on edge. Hunting public land can present challenges, but being aggressive and making informed decisions based on available intel can lead to success. The mental pressure and time crunch towards the end of a hunt can be managed by focusing on the enjoyment of the experience and appreciating the details of the hunt. Learn more about your ad choices.
