RE: Specific buck
Up here it is extremely hard to target a specific buck. There is no set bedding areas or feeding areas. Lot's of bush and no ag within 100 miles.
On that note, I do have a particular buck that I want to take this fall.....if he's still alive. "The Legend of Paradise Valley" We have found his sheds for the last 4 years. He was 160"+ the first year we found them and we believe he's now around 180" as a typical 10. I figure he is 7.5-8.5 years old. That in itself is extremely rare for up here, even though we have very little hunting pressure.
So I will be targeting him a lot, but not exclusively.
