bloodtrails Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 :confused:Today was awesome! I was 25 yards from my first buck with a bow. The bad news was I'm pretty sure he saw me. I was in a ground blind and he was coming right at me. I was not movin' as he got closer I was just getting ready to draw back when he looked up, I stopped and didn't even flinch but he then peeked around the tree I was waiting for him to step around and.... he let out a snort and took off. Do you think I'll see him again? There are scapes and rubs all around from him no doubt. I'm just wondering if it's worth hunting that spot still? I'm using urine and making some mock scrapes. Do you think its worth staying with that spot? Any advice would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kid Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 i'm pretty sure that from what it sounds he's not the only buck in the area, you might see that buck but maybe not from a ground blind, i'm sure if you changed your setup that you will get a shot at the buck.

buckee Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 Give him a few days (3 or 4) to forget, and go for him again. Just watch that ol' wind direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 Would also give it a few days, and get back in there on a day with the right wind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOYTnMUZZYboy Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 Like others have said im sure you will see him again, he will prolly be more alert this time around tho. I dunno where your at in the rut, but maybe you will see his next of kin behind a hot doe. Goodluck! Let us know how it turns out for you!
