RE: i need advice
It sound to me like you are setup INhis "daytimecore area", whefre he spends most of the day -so you are going to spook it most of the time.
It also sounds like the buck is getting in there very early in the morning, after being out at night.
What you need to do is figure out what trail he usescoming out of the area - and get far enough away form where he bds so you dont spook him, and then setup there in he evening and hope he comes out in the evening. Or - you can setup on the trail he uses to go back into the core area in the morning, set up far enough away not to spook him get there before he does, adn hope it happens during legal shooting hours.
There is also the posibility that the buck is nocturnal, only moving at night, or that it does not take part in the rut at all, and does not have to leave his core area during daylight hours.
If you can keep me updated on when and where you see the buck, or signs of it, on a weekly or daily basis, I will give the information to deer researcher and hunting guide T.R. Michels; he helps guyshunt deer over the internet. He's helped me the last three years.
Or you can just e-mail him at [email protected].
