Hunt the rubs. Hang some buck urine and just sit there. I would set up down wind of the rubs. Those bucks will treat a rub like a scrape because they are territorial. They leave sent on the trees they horn and if they think an intruder is in they're neck of the woods that might be the ticket. Don't give up on hunting off the ground. This time of year if you've got does, your gonna have the bucks. Good luck.
