Did I blow my chance for this season?

Unread postby woo » Fri Jan 16, 2015 8:21 pm

Bumped a buck from his bed while scouting, heard him get up. Walked to his bed to confirm. It was a well worn bed with a bunch of hair in it and a couple nice rubs near it. I realize now how good of a set up I have to kill this buck near his bed. My question is what are y'all opinions about my intrusion and ground scent disturbing this buck? Should I try to hunt him the within these last few days of the season or just wait till next year?

I say go for it. You got nothing to lose since the seasons almost over anyway.

I aGREE with Dewey, slim chances, but unless you have a better spot go ahead and give it a try.

This season might not matter but I bet next season you'll be ready!

I don't like your chances but if you have no better options not sure what to tell you. I personally would not hunt it again. That is me though.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.
