They be in bachelor herds, laying low. Everything is green in the woods now so lots of food and cover. No reason to move around too much.

I'm getting a group of young bucks now. I assume I will get the bigger ones around late August or early September.

I saw a bachelor herd of big bucks the other day. They were hanging in a field. It had just rained like crazy and was still drizzling. It was around dusk and getting darker faster due to the overcast conditions. They wouldn't be in that same field on a bright sunny day.
