Totally understand the part about the thieves. Give me back what has been stolen from me and I could buy myself a nice used atv for the farm. If it were me I would hunt the place with the smallest amount of pressure. Love to be away from farm houses and other hunters that I know of. I follow the does. Pictures will not tell the whole tale but they do help. If you find the does you accomplish both filling your freezer and if the rut is on a big buck might be right behind. The first one sounds like where I would spend my time.
