Keeping your eyes open is good. You would do well to get online for a topo map and aerial photo. Also, some walking the property would be good. Look for fences and fence crossings, creeks, funnels, benches, saddles, cliffs, bluffs--anything that forces deer to move in a predictable direction. Mapping the trails might be helpful; look especially for places where they come together. If you can identify bedding areas and food sources in the area, so much the better.

Deer commonly range over an area a lot larger than a mile, so not only is it within those buck's range, but also other bucks. Put out a couple of camera's ain August and you should start getting some pictures.
