Opinions?
 

I've been scouting a pretty nice buck. I've seen him in a field that I gained permission to hunt awhile back. Recently, there have been coyote hunters there the past week or two. They usually show up just b4 dark. They hunt pretty close to where i've spotted the buck a few times. I was wondering if this would affect the bucks home area and if I should find a new spot or if he'll still be around. I'm not sure how long they will be hunting but our season starts oct. 1. What are your opinions?

He's a muture animal and if he feels pressured he may very likely leave the area. If these coyote hunters haven't gotten close enough to spook him and the buck has kept his distance from the hunter there may be no issues. It's hard to say with so many factors. Have you seen him lately? Are the coyote hunters hunting over bait?

I've always known night hunters who hunt predators to hunt bait and they'll most likely not be walking all around the woods. I wouldn't abandon the spot. If they haven't had a close encounter he'll be around IMO.
