I agree with moose too, the young bucks wont be close to the big bucks that much during the rut. As the bigger bucks make their territory, the little ones scatter off. And most important, find the does and the bucks will be behind. Also sounds like a good area with thick brush. Goodluck to you and show the pics when it pays off

Hunt where the does are unless the wind is dead wrong. Then you're taking a chance of spooking that elusive monster. These guys are 100% correct. Hunt where those does are.
