Deer Lake Cabins Provides Winter Retreat to the Piney Woods of East Texas

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) December 27, 2005

The smell of a fire, squirrels rustling in leaves, deer grazing in the field and a slight ripple on the pond… all sights and sounds to experience at Deer Lake Cabins (http://www.deerlakecabins.com). For many, the holiday season creates as much stress as it does relaxation, which is why a rustic retreat to the tranquil Piney Woods of East Texas can be the answer for a post-Holiday escape.

Winter visitors can witness first hand many natural occurrences that most tend to take for granted. For instance, each year the 850-acre property becomes a stopping point for many species of migrating birds including ducks and geese that take residence in the two stocked fishing lakes. Guests commonly observe large groups of deer roaming the acreage and feeding on the grasses and grains made available to them. A cool, crisp walk down one of the many trails that meander the ranch can also reveal other wildlife like foxes, raccoons, armadillos and even a rare glimpse at a bald eagle.

On those particularly cold days, relax indoors in one of the 8 luxury cabins available. All cabins are fully furnished and include televisions, VCRs, central heat and air, and most have washers and dryers. The cabins also have well-equipped kitchens where a cup of cocoa or a pot of soup can be easily prepared. For guests interested in building and cozying up next to a fire, cabins with fireplaces are also available.

Deer Lake Cabins also sits in what is commonly referred to as Lake Country due to the close proximity of so many of the area lakes which offer lots of recreational activities in lakes like Cypress Springs, Bob Sandlin and Lake Fork. Of course, during the winter recreational activities are limited, but fishing swings into high gear. Deer Lake Cabins is located just minutes away from two of the best winter fishing lakes in Texas, Lake Monticello and Lake Welsh. Both lakes are power plant lakes, which means the water stays warm through out the winter making for excellent fishing, particularly for bass.

About Deer Lake Cabins

Deer Lake Cabins is a family-owned property nestled on over 850 secluded acres at the Double S Ranch, http://www.doublessranch.com , a real working cutting horse ranch for Quarter and Paint horses, adjacent to Lake Cypress Springs just outside of Mt. Vernon, Texas. The ranch is just minutes away from some of the best fishing lakes in East Texas, Lake Monticello, Lake Bob Sandlin, and Lake Cypress Springs.

Question by g4acre: Did you hear about the Drinking Deer Hunters?
Drinking Deer Hunters

One night at a local bar frequented by a bunch of deer hunters who were waiting for the opening day of deer season, the local sheriff scoped out the joint for possible drunk drivers.

As he waited, eventually a patron stumbled out of the bar, fumbled for his keys, tried them in three different cars until he finally found his, got inside and rested his head on the steering wheel. The deputy knew he had his drunk driver, so now all he had to do was wait for him to start his engine and pull out of the lot.

A few hours passed by and most of the other deer hunters had left by then, when the patron abruptly lifted his head, cranked the car up and drove out of the lot like a bat out of hell. The deputy followed him and stopped him promptly. He administered the breath-o-lizer test and it read 0.00.

Confused, the deputy asked the driver what the hell was going on. The driver looked at him innocently and said, “Well, tonight I’m the designated decoy.”

Master Outdoorsman J. Wayne Fears Authors Book to Help Deer Hunters Learn to Hunt Clear Cuts with Success

How to Hunt Clear Cuts Successfully

Pottstown, PA (Vocus) April 6, 2010

Clear cuts, much to the surprise of many hunters, can be a trophy hunter’s bonanza. To be successful, the hunter must understand the role clear cuts play in the deer’s overall habitat, and how to hunt the various stages of clear cut growth.

Author and master outdoorsman, J. Wayne Fears, has written a book that examines the growth stages of clear cuts, the value each stage is to the deer, and the various ways to effectively hunt each stage from year one through 30. This 144-page paperback also addresses long-range shooting techniques and how to hunt corridors found in clear cuts.

How to Hunt Clear Cuts Successfully is a guidebook to help you learn how to harvest big whitetail bucks in a clear cut by using the right hunting technique at the right time. Author J. Wayne Fears states, “One of the challenges to hunting a clear cut for a period of years, is that each year the forest changes and requires that the hunter adapt. Those who can adapt will find clear cuts, in good deer country, to be a new source of hunting where the woods aren’t crowded with hunters and the bucks grow big.” How to Hunt Clear Cuts Successfully tells you how.

How Hunt Clear Cuts Successfully is available for $ 8.95 at http://www.protoolindustries.net.

J. Wayne Fears has worked with white-tailed deer and deer habitat improvement for four decades. For almost ten years, Wayne was the Forest Recreation Manager for a major paper corporation where he was responsible for managing one-half million acres for deer. He has written a number of books on deer hunting and management including Hunting Whitetails Successfully, which sold over 500,000 copies. How to Hunt Clear Cuts Successfully is the second of a series of guidebooks on deer hunting and management Fears is writing for Pro Tool Industries.

This article is about how to pick the best rifle for deer hunting. Choosing the right rifle is very essential since it may make or break the hunt itself. You need to ensure that you have invested time in picking the best rifle because you don’t know what problems may arise because of a wrong rifle.

There are a lot of types of hunting rifles that are best for deer hunting. There are bolt-action, semi-automatic, lever-action and pump action rifles to name a few types of guns that hunters use for hunting deer. Within these types, there are also different caliber selections to consider.

Generally, you first have to consider the place of the hunt. If you are to hunt in a thick brush, you need a faster loading gun that you can operate in tight spaces. These guns are better if they are light, so that you can point and shoot quickly. If you will hunt in longer distances, you need a rifle that offers more control. Bolt-action rifles give you that control, but they are more difficult to work with in smaller spaces. Most hunters say that it is very complicated to load a bolt-action gun while crouching. The movement alone can scare the deer away and you’ll eventually lose your target.

Another thing you have to consider is the animal you are going to hunt for. Luckily, most rifles are alright for deer hunting. Yet larger calibers are required for heavier brush, while the smaller ones are suited for longer distances. For smaller animals, a semi-automatic 0.22 caliber may be used.

After considering these two things, it’s now time to pick a rifle. As a general rule, it doesn’t matter what brands you choose, so long as the gun you have selected is most comfortable for you. Think about the strength and accuracy of the rifle. Search for the best rifle for deer hunting in sporting stores until you find the one you want. Also look for adjustable triggers and thumb safety switches, those little extras that actually make the gun safer and more user-friendly. In addition, look into the barrel length of the gun. Short barrels tend to be more manageable and lighter, resulting to faster shooting action.

Once you have bought your rifle, get to know your own gun. Take it apart and assemble it together. Learn how you can make it safe for you. Find out also how you can maintain and store it such that accidents are avoided. Put it out of children’s reach, and if possible, lock it in a safe place. Also keep it unloaded whenever you’re not using it, and never ever point it at another person.

If you are just learning the ins and outs of this sport and you still haven’t figured out the best rifle for deer hunting, ask your friends or hear an expert’s opinion. Get the advice of people who work with guns, and with the right price, you are sure to have the rifle that’s best for you.

Beginner Deer Hunting

Deer hunting is one of the oldest and most popular sports in many parts of the world. It’s highly competitive and offers a unique experience each time. It can also be a dangerous sport, especially for inexperienced hunters. If this is unfamiliar territory to you, here are some things you need to know and understand about deer hunting to make sure you maintain the standards of safety and hunting ethics:

Understand your local rules.

In many places, there are certain regulations you need to be aware of prior to hunting deer. It is important that you understand what the laws in your locality are so you do not do anything considered illegal due to ignorance.

If you will be deer hunting on privately-owned land, get the owner’s permission first. If you will be cutting trees, limbs or shrubs, it’s important (and polite) to get approval. If you will be hunting on public land, check if cutting trees or parts of it is considered legal. In the majority of states, it is unlawful to alter the forest or to build structures. Make sure you understand what restrictions apply in your locality.

Know your equipment.

Never handle equipment that you don’t know how to use. If there are procedures recommended by the manufacturer, make sure that you have read and understood what they are. If you can, practice using the equipment first before going into deer habitat. Deer hunting equipment, especially guns and rifles, can be very dangerous if they are not used properly. Beginner Deer Hunting

Use the right gun.

Before you buy a hunting gun, check your local regulations first so you’ll know which types of guns are allowed. Second, you might want to consider the type of landscape you will be hunting in.

Open country spaces will require long-range shooters which give you enough power to shoot from a good distance. In forests and other areas that offer thick coverage, a rifle that can offer accurate shots at short ranges will be more favorable.

When you have a proper gun for deer hunting, make sure you practice a few rounds with it first. Like most beginners, you probably can’t hope to make the first shot count unless you’ve had some considerable shooting experience in the past. Try to master your main equipment first to ensure a more successful and productive hunt.

Bring safety equipment.

If equipment comes with safety devices or accessories, make sure to bring them during the hunt. If you will be hunting deer from tree stands, use your safety harness or belt. Wear the required clothing to keep yourself safe and free from accidents.

A first aid kit, mobile phone, flashlight, lighter and a whistle will also come in handy during emergencies, so make sure you’re packed. Beginner Deer Hunting

Hunt with an experienced buddy.

If you have never hunted deer before, it’s important that you find someone who has had good experience. They can offer you invaluable advice regarding the activity and since they know what to do, they can also increase the likelihood that you will enjoy a successful hunt.

Take note of hunting hours.

That’s right – hours. Generally, states do not allow hunters to fire guns before dawn and after the sun sets to ensure that hunters and their companions are safe. However, this doesn’t mean that you should start out when the sun’s already out. Go in early while it’s still dark to make sure you get the best possible location.

Inform someone that you will be hunting.

Before you leave the house, make sure someone knows where you will be and what you will be doing. At camp, leave a note that includes information about your whereabouts. This will be very useful in case you get lost or caught in an unexpected situation during deer hunting. Beginner Deer Hunting

Deer Hunting Shot Placement

It’s that time of year when outdoorsmen feel a certain giddy longing that they don’t feel during the hot summer months. They can feel it coming on stronger like a quickening and can smell it in the crisp clean fall air. It’s a feeling like no other. Like a deeply planted seed rooted completely into your soul. And when this feeling comes around. The big game deer hunting season has arrived!

With a childlike enthusiasm you know it’s now time to dust off your hunting gear. Sharpen you hunting knives, oil down your deer hunting rifle; test your tree climbing equipment and stock up on hunting supplies such as hunting clothes, deer scents and maybe a new grunt call. But before the opening day of the hunting season arrives and it’s time to do the necessary pre hunting rituals that all good experienced hunters always do every year, such as scouting for deer sign, looking for tracks, scrapes, rubs and scant. Finding a good climbing tree stand or ground blind placement can sometimes seam difficult and downright unnerving. You want that perfect spot were you know you will always see the game that you are pursuing. And you want to be able to take the correct actions when the big moment arrives to bag that huge deer of a lifetime. So here are some Supreme Deer Hunting Tips that can help you take that big buck that you have always dreamed of. Deer Hunting Shot Placement

Before we begin I would like to tell you a story. A story about myself and why I have written this article. As a young boy I was naturally attracted to nature. My father was really not an outdoorsman. We went fishing at times but never went hunting. As I got older a friend of mine, Bob invited me along with him on a deer hunt. I loved it and I was from that day on, hooked for life! I proceeded to purchase my first deer hunting riffle, a 30.06 Remington. We hunted every single year and he would always harvest a deer. Usually a spike or a four pointer, but I had bigger plans. Deer Hunting Shot Placement

I wanted to get those big eight pointers with the nice heavy racks. I proceeded to test every location in every situation I could find. I read and consumed every deer magazines known to man like a mad man. Bob would always say, “Why do read those things? You won’t be able to get big dear like in those magazines”! He couldn’t have been more wrong. He refused to take pointers from any of my books or magazines. Don’t get me wrong, my friend Bob taught me a lot of the basics and good tactics. He was a very good teacher, but at some point I began to get bigger and better bucks than the teacher.

As I read all the magazines and books and I would learn new ideas and strategies. Bob would hunt the open woods and I would hunt the thicker stuff. I started to take nicer and larger bucks each year. And Bob, Well… let’s just say, he has a whole garage full of spikes and four pointers on the walls. Deer Hunting Shot Placement

Now even though I learned a lot from those hunting magazines. They never really helped me with some critical things. Stratagies that I had to and had learned in the field. Like spotting that perfect place to put a stand in any hunting location. Or the perfect way to spot a deer and take the shot without ever losing the game. Let’s face it, if you can’t find the perfect spot to hunt from, you will never see deer, see enough deer or get consistently close enough to take deer when you’re hunting. And if you don’t know the correct way to spot, respond and shoot the deer, you are not going to have that huge rack on your wall or venison in the freezer.

I’ve had to learn that the hard way. By years of trial and error. I have decided to put the best advice I have learned out of all those years, brake them down into a few critical tips and provide them here. They may not seem to be much on the surface. But they may be some of the best tips you may ever find. Deer Hunting Shot Placement

Deer Decoy Tips

Whitetail deer are very smart creatures. However, many hunters have bagged trophy bucks by using decoys. Hunters that choose to use this tool must be careful about which decoy to put in place. One main concern is that decoys may make deer more nervous instead of setting them at ease. It really depends on how real the decoy looks, if scents are used and possibly even the time of year.

Many hunters feel that deer feel at ease around turkeys. Wild turkey tend to inhabit many of the same areas as whitetails so the two are familiar with each other. Turkey are extremely hard to get close to so it is thought that deer feel fairly comfortable around them. Some hunters use turkey decoys in a field to help deer feel at ease and to steer them toward the stand. Deer and turkey have been seen sharing a field at the same time many times, but for some reason deer tend to go to the other side of the feeding area from turkey. It may be because turkey tend to be aggressive over the chosen feeding area. In any case, placing turkey decoys on one end of a field may force deer to graze on the other end. Deer Decoy Tips

Probably the most common decoy is the deer decoy. Buck or doe decoys are available. A big buck decoy will probably send younger bucks running especially in the late prerut, but it may bring a large buck out to investigate. Doe decoys used during the rut, especially with scents and calls produce fair results. It depends on placement and the scents used. Nothing is certain with deer hunting but this scenario has brought in some big bucks. Also, some feel that using more than one deer decoy in one field helps deer feel more comfortable. For example, several does feeding in a field usually will not upset a buck in the least. In fact bucks tend to walk right on out if several deer are already in the field.

Using decoys takes some experience in knowing when to use them and where. Some decoys may be pricey but are worth it if it turns out to be a great deer attractant. Hunters have been experimenting for years with decoys and have had varying results. Most experiment for themselves to see which decoys work best in individual hunting areas. Take the time to buy a decoy and experiment with it in different situations. Deer Decoy Tips

Whitetail Hunting Trips In Iowa

Bow hunting seasons are now open in most states. Here in Wisconsin we have been hunting for a few weeks now. We have passed up shots at some smaller bucks. The bigger deer have failed to show themselves yet.

Now is the time to hunt close to the bedding areas. The deer have sensed the change in the seasons and have noticed the increased human activity in the woods. The mature bucks will most likely stay bedded until just before dark, so set as close to the bedding area as you can without spooking the deer. I watched a doe come out of the swamp ½ hour before dark, but no bucks came out.

This weekend us here at AWH will be heading to Iowa for our first hunt down there this year. Our goal is to bring back three big does. The farm we hunt has a lot of does and we need to our part in trimming the herd. By shooting a few does, we will help keep the buck /doe ratio more balanced. This will cause more competition for the breeding bucks, come November. This will make the bucks to respond better to calling, rattling, and decoying. The second thing that shooting does will do is that there will be less deer eating the farmers crops, and it’s good to keep the farmers happy. He will be more apt to let you hunt if your do him a favor by shooting more deer. So if you have a doe tag, now is the time to fill it. You can then be very selective with your buck tag.

October is also a good time to hunt different stands then you normally hunt. I have a tendency to hunt a certain stand that has always produced good bucks in the past. But it is set close to the bedding area and I believe that the bucks will sit tight till dark and then they here you get down from your stand and walk out of the woods. When this starts happening it’s time to let that stand rest for a while. I will then hunt other stands that I don’t hunt too much. You might catch deer leaving the bedding area from a different direction and get a shot at them by hunting the other stand.

We have scouted out some new hunting areas the last time we were in Iowa, so this weekend we will hang a stand or two in the new spots and hunt them a few times. You must always be looking for new spots to hunt, unless you buy the land yourself, you will eventually lose it. We always are looking at new places to hunt. On this hunt we will hunt the mornings and evenings, and then scout during the middle of the day. Hopefully we will come across and great, new honey hole. Whitetail Hunting Trips In Iowa

As October progresses, It will be the time that I start hunting mornings, I don’t hunt mornings too often during the early part of the season. I have found that the mature bucks have usually gone back to the bedding area by first light. But as we get to the later part of the month you will start to see some scrapes and rubs made by the younger bucks as they start sensing that some does are coming into heat. This is the time to start doing some calling and rattling. This technique has worked for me in the past. I hunted a Saturday morning in late October, I was sitting in my funnel stand and I decided to do some rattling. A half hour after I rattled I looked to the north towards the funnel and a deer with nice polished antlers was looking my way. I got ready and as if on cue, it moved in front of me and I drew when it went behind a tree. It stepped out into one of my shooting lanes that we had cut way back in August, and I put the pin on it and I watched my arrow disappear into its chest. It was a great feeling when all are hard work paid off and everything went to plan.

Are you still shooting your bow? It is always a good idea to keep shooting during the season to keep sharp. I keep a target in my truck and before I go into the woods I shoot a few practice arrows to make sure that I am still on. You don’t need to shoot 100 arrows every day; you just need a few here and there to keep yourself sharp.

If you are experiencing the dreaded “October Lull” have faith the deer will be on the move again. Hunt some less disturbed stands, hunt at different times, keep shooting and remember that the rut is only a few weeks away. Whitetail Hunting Trips In Iowa

Deer Hunt – www.HUNTNGFOOTAGE.COM I saw this buck briefly 2 years ago. Back then he was a 10pt and I thought he was 4yrs old. Today I was sitting in the same box blind overlooking an oat patch and a road. The buck showed up, I turned on the camera, realized he was a BIG 8pt and decided to take him. I grabbed for my rifle as he was walking out of the frame, got a good rest, re-focused the camera, and took the shot. This all happened in about 1 minute’s time! I would have been in a bow blind, but it was bitter cold, windy, and raining. Thanks to the storm, I went to the blind with my rifle to scout and look for a doe. Sometimes, decisions are made for a reason! deer hunting deer hunting deer hunting deer hunting
