Final holiday weekend approaches Barren River

By JOEL WILSON
For the Daily Times

Setting up in these areas also reduces the chance a hunter will spook deer when climbing out of a tree stand.

“If you spook them one time, more than likely the older deer will become more nocturnal,” Mitchell said. “Then you just undid all of your scouting.”

Early morning and late evening are the most productive times to hunt. Just like people, deer don’t want to move around during the heat of the afternoon.

“They spend the hot part of the day in the shade,” said Yancy. “In the cooler evening, they’ll wander down the trail and out into the field. If the weather stays pleasant like it’s been lately, they’ll be coming out while there’s still some shooting time left.”

Successful early season hunters should be careful to get their deer meat cooled down quickly. Mitchell cautions that simply putting a bag of ice in a deer’s body cavity isn’t enough on a hot day.

“I would advise prior to going on a hunt like that, be prepared to immediately skin that deer and get him in the cooler within an hour; two hours at the most,” he said. “You’ve got to get it cooled or you’re going to lose that meat.”

Before going after their early-season buck, hunters should be sure to review a copy of the “2008-09 Kentucky Hunting & Trapping Guide,” available wherever hunting licenses are sold. The guide details complete regulations on bag limits, licensing, hunter education and equipment restrictions.

This weekend on Kentucky Afield TV, a youth squirrel hunt will be featured along with a visit to the workshop of a Franklin County man who works with pioneer weapons like the flintlock shotgun. The program airs Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. and repeats Sunday at 3 p.m. on KET.
