To consistently bowkill mature bucks on pressured lands that most of us are forced to hunt... country that receives plenty of hunting/human pressure and predatory pressures..
1. You must have at least one big buck/mature that traverses or lives on the ground you have access to hunt, so location is HUGE!
2. Solid game plan/ and lots of time to execute it!
3. Skills and the ability to seal the deal when that 1 or maybe 2 opportunities arises through an entire season.

Mike I am not sure if #2 applies to you with all the in/out hunting you do.
You all over the place with that lone wolf of yours.

Yeah.. you're correct Tony.. I do move alot.. ALOT...
But I always make a game plan going into every morning or evening. Ask my wife.. I'll sit in bed and stare at topo's and aerial's while monitoring weather.com's suspected wind direction..
Now granted I don't have ample time at many locations to really "set" up a year long game plan...
All I need is a few seconds... and a little luck...
