Or do you see this often? There's been a lot of times I've debated getting on a island but figured my chances of bumping them from their mains beds to be to great.
Everyone is different... That's where scouting comes in play. You gotta know what your up against. I shot one big buck on that same drive when I got in the same tree as in the video, then sent the standers to the island and they pushed a buck bedded on the island straight to me. And, once bow hunting I jumped a good one on the island while climbing my tree.
