From the Field

 After shed season I’m sure the average whitetail hunter turns his attention to hitting the lake or getting his camper ready for the summer trips. While deer season may seem like a long way off, as a dedicated whitetail hunter you should still have deer on your mind.

It is said that a whitetail is a slave to their stomach and during the spring and summer months I don’t think there could be any truer of a statement. Other than fawns being born this time of year, a whitetails main priority is to start to bulk back up on body mass they had lost through the fall and winter months. With that in mind, spring is a great time to plant food plots. Not only do they give you a great way to keep tabs on your local herd,

It was a cool crisp April morning last year as I watched the sun break over the horizon to a frosted over landscape. I sat comfortably in my ground blind and watched the sun as it illuminated my full strut tom decoy, I could hear some tom’s gobbling off in the distance.

Any diehard whitetail hunter will tell you deer season never ends; it just starts over every year. Truer words have never been spoken. I'm sure many of you already know this but if you're new to hunting, our seasons never end.  They just start over the day after the previous season ends. You can break down what needs to be done with the flip of a calendar. You have food plots to plant, tree stands to prep, scouting, and one of my personal favorites, shed season.

Every year as the calendar inches closer to spring many outdoorsmen are busting at the seams to head to the woods. We have been couped up inside since the end of deer season resting up for all the spring has to offer. Here at Working Class Hunter, we have a laundry list of thigs to do, shed hunting, chasing the first fish of the year, and of course hunting long beards. While all that is fun there are still some whitetail chores that need to be done this time of year and at the top of that list is getting out our spring mineral sites. We like to get our Trophy Rock mineral sites out as early as possible so the whitetail can reap all the benefits they have to offer. Let’s cover some of the main reasons you should put a mineral site out as well.
