RE: Spooked a Buck....Now What?
Yeah i would rotate your stands. I always rotate my stands, i have spooked plenty of good deer before and I usually make a rotation and give the spot i messed up on a weeks rest MINIMUM. I have gotten lucky on rotating positions too, sometimes using a climber. It catches them off guard. If you hunt one stand to much they will start to pick up on it. Give them the switch and they may never see it coming. I never hunt a stand more then two times in a row or three times in a week.
