725 - Feed Trees, Thickets & Woodsmanship with Robert Carter | THROWBACK

Today, we are talking with @WhitetailResearch on some extremely unique and interesting insights into buck behavior that have come out of a year-long thermal drone study! 

Derrick Dixon is the man behind the channel/website Whitetail Research. In today's episode we dive into his findings from his year long study using a thermal drone to observe buck movement. Subjects:
 
 • The factor that allowed Derrick to time when bucks would get up & move.
 • Do bucks really move farther in the morning or evening?
 • Are thermals more important than wind?
 • How much do acorns change deer movement?
 • Why don’t mature bucks show up in fields during daylight?
 • Could your access strategy be hurting you more than you think?
 • Are the funnels you’re hunting actually risky spots for bucks?
 • What really happens in staging areas before dark?
 • What can drones reveal that GPS collars can’t?

and a TON more! Make sure you check out @WhitetailResearch on YouTube to see all the great information he is putting out.
