Are bumper crops acorns a good thing or a bad thing for bow hunting? That is part of the conversation during this week's podcast. We give you tips on how to hunt and if you should be aggressive during this time of the year or not.

When dealing with an excellent mast crop, you must set trail cameras over your top producing white oak trees. In addition, you need to focus effort on the cover. This food source is everywhere, so stay to what is consistent and that is cover, specifically east and north facing slopes during this time of the year. When hunting during this time, just remember that you must hunt with favorable winds. You need to put the time in the tree to be successful under these conditions, so make sure you are hunting undetected.

Don't be afraid to put time in, but be expected to hunt extensively during this time frame. Deer patterns are tough, but any time in the field is still a time to learn and observe!
