Thanks. However, I've never patterned a buck up at our camp. We are amidst 100,000 acres of unbroken forest, swamp and overgrown clearcuts. The deer are like needles in a hay stack. You have to really do your scouting and then still have luck on your side. I never saw this buck before. I just decided to try and rattle in an area that does inhabit because the rain was so hard I had nothing to lose. Sucker came right in. The last buck I got before him was the 2004 archery season. Never knew he existed either. I left my stand for the day and actually walked right up on him. It was rainy and foggy and I guess he figured I didn't see him. Oh well.
