Ok guys, I'm so close to killin a big buck I can feel it... Got 3 130 class bucks comin to my camera just before dark. And 2 150+ bucks coming after dark.

Now I know the patterns are going to change w/ the rut, had 4 little bucks under me this morn, and 2 were chasin a doe.

So im headed back out this eve, but am dumbfounded... Do I hunt the food source where im gettin my pics, or do I try to head off one of the big bucks by going deep into the woods??

OR do I hunt the does on their way to the food???

GRR So torn... although good news is I have a new buck that would possibly break 160"

First off..if you haven't done so I'd pull the camera. You know whats there by now, why add scent and possibly flash etc to the equation.

Second I'd move back some into the woods in the staging area. I'm kinda in the same situation and that's my next move.

Hunt where the deer are during daylight

Id say move a little closer and buy yourself some daylight. Dont get to close that your gonna spook! 50 to 100 yards could be 20 minutes of daylight! Good luck!!
