In short, last year we had several nice bucks roaming around during and after the rut. This year, none of those big guys seem to be around.
Would the drought have altered their patterns? The creek beds are dry, but we have a few different ponds on the property where we hunt, so I’m wondering what would’ve happened to the big bucks.
A couple, including one we called Tank, was old, and may have not made it past last winter, but another, one we call Slick, and one that looks like a younger brother of his, seemed to have disappeared.
Thoughts from any of you folks that have hunted for deer over the years?
