What a lot of the younger guys and new to this style guys are going to find out is its not the instant success in most cases that they expect. It can take years of scouting and hunting to really get good at this.
When it comes to primary buck bedding areas I have about 20 in the area near my home that I hunt, I have thousands of beds that are used for certain reasons, but only about 20 bedding areas I would call primary... So, more often than not, Im not hunting a primary, but even so, the over all majority of my bucks are shot coming out of primary beds... You see so many guys get really excited when they find there 1st bed or two... But a lot of these spots don't pay off. And you loose a lot over the years for one reason or another. You need to keep scouting, keep hunting, and keep adding the spots to the list. If you put a good amount of time into a spot and it don't pay off, try some new spots and drop the unproductive.
Great point. Guys see you do it and you make it look much easier than it really is. You did not start out with a wall full of bucks, guys must understand this.
