Not to sound to negative but most of the time places either hold big bucks or yhey dont.Most of the time the people that shhoot big bucks have the habitat that hold big bucks.Its not there better hunters they just have better land to hunt.You can try food plots,planting trees switch grass and the like,but it helps if you can get buck bedding spots on your land.The big bucks barely ever stray to far from there beds during shooting hours.And will rarely walk into food plots during light unless its close to thier bed.If no bucks are bedding on your property the rut is probably your best chance.
