Fred, Fred, Fred you forgot STAY LONG during the rut. they bed in clear cuts. You never know when a buck is going to cruise looking for bedded does. Climb high so you can see as much of it as possible. I shot at one chasing a doe in a CC several years ago about 200 yds out. They were hauling butt the whole time and
I didn't come close. They disappeared over a hill and a few mins after it quieted down, a buck I had pics of stood up about 50 yds from me and looked around. BIG MISTAKE. This happened around 1 pm one afternoon. Carry something to eat and drink, sit all day. Hunt Safe
