Re: Bedded Buck
I would have shot him as my firstt buck of the year, and hold out for a Pope for the rest of my season.

Spy,
Was the river behind him and the wind in his face?

No, the wind was at the deers back, and he was looking out where he couldn't smell.
I'll have to try and post an ariel. I wound up killing another buck at this setup a few days after this video was made.
A buck will see you three times, and hear you twice, but he's only gonna smell you once.

Re: Bedded Buck
I tried to make a map of the setup. I still have a lot to learn. Hope you can all see it. The stand is in red, and the yellow on the river is my zodiak route in. If I don't come in on the river, it's game over.

Re: Bedded Buck
Nice detailed map Spy!! Great video as well. Was he a 2.5 year old? Kinda looked that way to me.

Where was this footage taken? Knowing you it could be any corner of the country!
That was one of my river access(zodiak) spots on public land in SD. Deer don't expect danger to come from the river. If I showed an ariel and the direction the wind was blowing(towards the river) you'd see why a buck was there.
Would you guys have passed him too?
He looks 2.5 115 class to me, I think you have to give him a year.

Yeah, 2.5.
Just a cool video clip. This spot has produced a few good ones though.

Re: Bedded Buck
He looks damn near Identical to a 2.5 I passed numerous times In 2010 before he got shot during our gun season. Great footage once again Spy!Spysar wrote:Schultzy wrote:Nice detailed map Spy!! Great video as well. Was he a 2.5 year old? Kinda looked that way to me.

I doubt it was a primary bed. But it was in a prime spot. The deer could smell what was behind him, and see what was in front of him. The only vulnerable spot was the river I came in from.

I don't find buck beds, buck beds find me, . I saw quite a few bucks bed down near me this year. I'll have to see if I have more footage of the other ones.
