2 areas that I hunt that I know for a fact have mature bucks living there do not have much buck sign at all, you'd never know a large buck lived there except for the tracks.

The more areas I scout, the more I am finding a direct relation with the deer density vs the the number of big bucks. It seems they do a lot more marking in areas w here they are in competition.
