Buck travel routes?????
I was wondering whether bucks travel different routes once split up from bachelor groups. I have a stand site that I just repositioned this year based on two consecutive years of rub lines. This buck has torn up trees, and bushes for the past two years in the same location, and I back tracked his trail up the hill at the end of the season last year, and jumped him at maybe 20 yards out of his bed. He gave me a good look from behind some brush, and he's a good Texas deer. I tried to get on him earlier in the year, and was busted. So I relocated just downwind from his trail two weeks ago, put out a mineral lick by digging it in the ground as I have read about here, and set a trail cam up. As of right now there are no pictures on it. Will he likely start using the route again? The trail still looks used.
