RE: Luring out a big buck?
i wouldn't hunt right on top of his bedding area. try to find where he is going to eat and set up inbetween these two spots. mock scrapes will work but from my personal experience, bucks use scrapes more during the night. utilize your grunt tubes and try some rattle'n. once a buck locates a hot doe, calls normally will no longer work, his mind is only on one thing.
