Greg you are right. Big bucks no matter where they are, have noses and eyes and ears, they use them the same as every deer anywhere!! I think what some of us are saying, myself included, is that you first have to have big bucks to find before you can go after them. You are not stupid, you make sure you hunt places that carry big bucks, as I do as well, the difference in you and me, you are better than me. I have not reached the top of my game by far. I have lots of big bucks running around my properties, got some with the gun, still waiting and working for the arrow to pass through one. Location is key, but you still have to hunt em and figure them out, noone on here has said that it will fall in your lap if you huntthose spots, Im a prime example.
