LOL No JOKE!! I would check anywhere deer MIGHT be able to find food. And cedar thickets...... All the deer I have seen as of late are near cedars and on hills opposite of the current wind direction or low spots again to get OUT of the wind.

If not here then I'd wait till the snow starts going down. Many that dropped already won't be visible till late March or April depending on your weather. If you insist on looking, I'd say food sources with bedding areas in close proximity. Deep snow and cold will keep them close to food and in larger numbers to fend off predators.

Stone Cold Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Or if you do it like I do here in Illinois, I look through my bino's from the truck to see if I can see where they are grouped up and then will check that spot when snow starts to melt!

deershed Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 If they didn't drop before all that snow give it a few days and hit the deer trails in the snow.With that much snow the deer will stick to the trails already cut through the snow.
