Knowing your bucks

Unread postby mheichelbech » Sat Aug 01, 2015 4:07 am

I saw this comment on a different post..."If you know your bucks well..." I presume that means where they are bedding, travel routes, etc.

Who here actually feels like they know their bucks well and how did you accomplish that? Was it mostly through the use of trail cameras? Sitting observation stands in September/October?

I know what post your talking about. What I think he meant was hunting home body bucks before the rut has them traveling long distances. I bet he uses trail cameras and lots of glassing and shining. And of course he knows were they prefer to bed.
