I had a fairly good buck hanging around within a 1/2 mile radius of my farm all summer long. I had seen the buck twice well after hours usually in my lights on my way home from the bar. A neighbor came over about a month ago at 7:30 am and saw the buck skipping across my driveway and into our pasture. Later that week this is what i found near the kids sandbox about 60 yards from my kitchen window. Never did see that buck during the season but he is still around here somewhere.

Big deer don't get that way by showing themselves often, how many times have you said " hey I never seen that buck before!!". I would have to say one reason whitetail hunting is so addicting, you just never know what you'll see in any given day or moment.

I would be consider baiting him. But don't forget to add some pails and shovels... maybe add a little umbrella for shade. You gots to give them what they like!!!

I would charge him for the damage to your lawn
