Advice on hunting
I live on 500 acres that hasn't been hunted for about 3 or 4 years. There is about 160 acres of woods with a little pond in the middle. There is also an old logging trail going threw the woods also. On the trail there is about 50 rubs and about 20 or 30 scraps on the ground and some of the rubs are on trees up to 4 or 5"s thick. There has been a few big bucks spoted in this area, one with drop tines. I have not seen anything bigger than an 8 pointer. What is everyones advice on getting this big buck. I am a first year hunter and I am hooked.
Thanks for any help

RE: Advice on hunting
Hunt the edges. If possible leave a section of 30-50 acres alone for the deer to hold up. If you leave that area alone, preferably in the middle of the property, you should always have good deer numbers to hunt. In order for this to work you have to be disciplined and never disturb this area!!
