Is the truth somewhere in the middle? - 02/06/23 03:08 AM
On these theories of Mylar balloons and the stuff like that?
I don’t think finding balloons in the woods mean you found a big buck bedding area. I think balloons will fall where balloons fall, thermals and wind will carry them where they find their final resting place and big bucks will bed where big bucks like to bed.
Earlier this evening I missed a big buck. Actually, my bullet centered up a tree limb. Had the bullet been a half inch higher I would have new wallpaper soon. Oh well.
Either way, while I was looking for blood or any indication as to why the deer didn’t look to of died, I found the deers bed. Within sight of the bed I found an area littered with Mylar balloons. 4 or 5 of them anyways.
I’ve also found them in the middle of our fields. So I don’t put a lot of weight into it either way, just a neat observation from my evening.
What are some other theories out there?
