he's got some nice head gear, I would say he'd go 160-170''

Cool. My first year hunting. I am bow hunting my land, If he scores that big I might just grab the .270 and take him down.

He came through this deer trail I set up my camera up on on September 21 at 9:40pm. He didnt return until October 5 at 8 pm. Any suggestions on how I should go about running into him or luring in?

Just hunt everyday, morning and evening. IMO Your best chance at him will probably be in the rut.

Goodluck!

You can not get him if your not in the woods. That is my advise on luring him in.

Defently. I have been going everyday. I have 4 stand locations setup on the edge of my pine farm im hunting in and the hardwoods that border a swamp. He has a fresh rub right infront of the camera also two scrapes on ground about 20 yards from this camera but doesnt look like its been touched in few weeks. I was thinking of making a few mock scraped and throwing up a couple drippers to see if maby he would come through and check them out. He has alot of country to explore so i figure he isnt come by this spot but once every week or so. Thanks for the advice tho. I started hunting this land this year for first time cuz its family land and this is only buck I have seen out there on camera or in person. Uncle saw a spike 2 days ago in later afternoon before dark.

If you're hunting his scrape line I bet you'll catch him coming through checking his scrapes sooner or later if you put enough time in.

Def a shooter, he's mature. But he is lacking mass and has a few deductions. I would say 150

He has a lot of sticker points so those deductions put him at somewhere around 150-155. My opinion anyway. Definitely a shooter where I come from.
