I don’t deer hunt much and was asked my opinion on the following. A friend is looking at a piece of land about 75-100 acres in size. It is wooded river bottoms and is pretty hard to get to being an oxbow. He is looking at this as a recreational piece of land to have a small deer camp on for personal hunting. The problem is it has a single oil well on it and a couple more in the general area. These are active but not real productive and there is no real traffic or activity. Oil income is not part of the land so no benefit there
He is concerned that the one well on the property will scare the deer away. Anyone have any experience hunting around typical southern Indiana oil wells? My thoughts are as they don’t make a lot of noise and are not uncommon in the area that the deer population would be used to them.
