RE: Tip for catching a monster
That is pretty much the strategy I am using now in my neighborhood. Trying to catch the bucks searching for the last does to come in heat or the ones coming in for the second time.
The problem is, around here there are many things that can throw the deer off of their travel routes. Like dogs in the neighborhood, people mowing the leaves or blowing them around, and then the 4 wheelers running thru the area. If it is real nasty weather I have less disturbances.
