    Hope I get a crack at this one. Knew instantly it was a perfect spot when scouted. Found buck bed with hair, 20+ rubs around it, sits on a small ridge with 2 steep sides, can see top and bottom field and hill sides.6 trails converge next to that spot. [​IMG]

    What a great looking buck! I'd get little sleep knowing he's in my woods. Hope you get a chance at him!

    Got any big scrapes within 50 to 100 yds? You may be able to kill him soon if you do....

    You'll probably get one chance at him. Make it count soon before he changes his pattern. Couple weeks an everything will change.

    Good luck, hope you get a chance!
