Do many of you guys hunt food plots? I'm not a bow hunter (would love to learn someday though) so I need some advice getting deer in range. I've got a couple of little girls that love to hunt with me. I bought a crossbow a few years ago just to play with and extend my season. The girls love shooting the crossbow but don't like shooting the rifle. They have gotten good enough with the crossbow that I now feel comfortable letting them pull the trigger on a deer. Problem is I really don't have good places to take them in the woods at my place. I usually take them to a shooting house overlooking a foodplot because it's comfortable for them (and I want them to keep coming with me). Problem is, of all the deer I've seen on those plots I can only remember a handful that would have been within the range I would let them shoot. Any strategies you all use to draw deer in closer? I'm going to put up a couple of double ladders in the woods next year but wondering if there is anything I can do on these food plots most of which are 100-150 yds across. I can't remember exactly what the plots are planted with but it's a basic mix. I'm wondering it would help if I planted something different, more enticing, in a 30 yard radius around the shooting houses. Do you think that would help at all? Any other ideas? Of course this is all planning for next year. For now, I've got a pop up blind I may use in the woods. Otherwise, I'll keep taking them to the food plots hoping one gets within cross-bow range (but keeping my rifle handy just in case). Thanks
