Identifying Oak Trees for Whitetail Deer Hunting
Показать описание
In this video Cameron joins Chris Creed of Afflictor Broadheads to teach us how to identify oak trees for Whitetail Deer Hunting. Chris has been self-sustaining for over 25 years and has an in depth knowledge on tree and plant identification.
Acorns produced by oak trees are a large part of a whitetails diet. Understanding what acorns to look for can benefit you as a hunter in a big way.
Lets start out with identifying White Oaks vs Red Oaks.
The main differentiator between White Oaks and Red oaks are the leaves. White oaks will have rounded lobes while red oaks will have pointed tips.
Another solid identifier is the acorn, specifically the cap. The cap of a red oak will only come down about 1/4 of the way down the nut and will have a scale-like appearance. The cap of a white oak acorn comes down the nut about 1/3 of the way and will be bumpy. Also, the acorn of a white oak is typically elongated and the red oak is fat and stubby.
Now, once you are able to identify what family the oak tree comes from, it is important to understand the palatability for a Whitetail. It's really simple, Whitetails will prefer white oak acorns over red oak acorns 10 times out of 10. This is because the tannin levels are lower on white oaks compared to red oaks. The higher the tannin levels, the more bitter tasting the acorn is.
However, when red oak acorns are plentiful, they are still a preferred food source when white oaks are not available.
In the October months, acorns are key. The bucks are fueling up for the rut and are really keying in on acorns. So, for a whitetail hunter it can be the deciding factor on wrapping your tag around your target buck in the early days of October.
