This past weekend we were down at the farm there in Ohio and some of the things I wanted to do was to check and possibly clear some of the trails that went past some of our stands. I would have much rather done this earlier in the summer but this year time has not on my side. Last fall I had a big buck pass by on a trail that was too far away and I found out while shed hunting the reason was because branches had fallen on the trail closer to my stand and caused them to re-route around it.
Since I didn't take any pictures I won't bore you all with trying to spell out what I did and all. Out of 4 stand sites that had major trails going past, all 4 had logs, deadfalls or even just so much undergrowth that the deer had actually changed their routes some. Two trails were completely blocked which would have been a complete disaster for those stand locations.
