    so I am gonna go back to my grandmas on Mon and hunt out property there. On the trail to where I sit is a couple rubs and a scrape. I walked it last time I was there and was surrounded by does, but no shot opportunities. My plan is to get there, put a cover sent on my boots like I did last time and then stop at the scrape. At the scrape I'll put a drag strip down and throw some estrous pee on it and then drag it to a hope full shooting lane. Does this sound like a pretty good plan? Hope to hear from yall

    If you know where the does are, the bucks will follow. When is the last time you were there and saw the does?

    You are going to be in the money. If you feel like putting out estrous stuff, go for it, but I would not worry about it. If you were covered up in does and know where they bed, just set up pretty close to them but without spooking them and you will see bucks....no question.

    Good luck buddy.

    I would get the drag working as soon as I hit the woods...refresh it at the scrape and drag it the rest of the way, then hang it out front of your stand and hopefully crosswind from you.

    Also the only other person that hunts was in the other side of the property and had a bunch of does yesterday, it has a pretty high concentration of deer moving through there

    You are going to be good. If there are that many does, man I would spend a lot of my time hunting around that spot over the next few days.

    Thanks for the ideas and input. The scrape is right as I enter the woods
