You often hear about deer hunters hunting near parking lots rather than "deep in".

I'm not so sure hunting parking lots is all that bad of a thing !!!

It is a good place right around lunch time. The hunters that are on there way back for lunch often kick deer back to there truck on the way.  I know guys that get deer year in and year out this way.  I Just can't bring myself to do it.

Over the years I have found many deer like to hit the parking lots at first light too... especially around here at SGL#54 parking lots...

I think they want to check out any food etc that "parkers" and "partiers" have left during the night .

I have often seen others like UPS, mailman, loggers, etc taking their lunch breaks in the parking lots, maybe they leave some tid-bits behind too ..

speaking of  # 54 I have a question for you.  Up at the old game school the PGC has a work building in the middle of the food plots.  Is there a safety zone there when hunting small game?   I've always felt odd hunting that close to the building, but have seen many others hunting there.  dd
