Legacy

Well by the sounds of it you are definitely in one of his routes to and from his preferred bed. I think the time of day really spells that out. Judging by the frequency that he's using it, he feels confident and secure in his travels also. Pick and choose your days wisely. I would put some serious thought into what the best wind for the stand and also figure out the best approach in or out is. It might sound strange but I would check the wind history for the dates and times you have him on camera. It might not matter but there could be a pattern there. Knowing his travel route to and from his primary bedding gives you an opportunity at him for the entire season and not just the rut. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

October 30pm 50 degrees NW wind 5 mph Mostly sunny What a night! After 5:00 it was insane. 12-15 total deer. 6 different bucks. Had an amazing encounter with a 10pt that has been very photogenic. He chased a doe out of the corn to get things going. Chased her all over the field. Grunted to him and he seemed very intrigued but he continued to follow the doe. 10 minutes later he came back and came right to my tree. Had him at 10 yards but never got a shot. He was stuck behind a big willow and never stepped out. Awesome night watching all these deer interact. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

How often are you getting pictures? What time of day? Direction of travel? Is he bedding on the property? Any idea where he is bedding? Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

October 30 34 degrees SW wind 5-10 mph Mostly sunny Crisp, cold, frosty morning. Raccoons, coyote, squirrels, and a few deer. Saw a young buck with his nose to the ground chase a doe from a bedding area. A few other deer in and out of the corn but never got the binocs on them. Textbook perfect morning but nothing to fling an arrow at. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I have never seen a coyote on this property in the 15+ years I have hunted here until yesterday morning and again this morning. Pretty sure it was the same one but who knows. #wileyneedstogo Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Picture perfect October morning! Just had a small buck with his nose to the ground enter a bedding area and bump some does. He chased after them and disappeared into the woods in front of me. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thats awesome!

October 29 pm 47 degrees 5-15 mph becoming calm Cloudy Good night on stand tonight. Had my kid out there too so that always makes it good. Lots of deer moving. Between the two of us we saw four bucks and four doe. Saw some chasing. My kid saw a shooter ten on his feet at 445 ish. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

October 29 am 42 degrees W wind 5-10 Cloudy Occasional sprinkle Fresh set this morning. This spot seems to really shine during the second half of bow season so I have left it alone. Had a six point come through. Rub a tree for awhile and then browse his way through. Did 3 rattling sequences this morning with no luck. Lots of fresh rubs and three scrapes all within view of the stand. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

October 28 pm 42 degrees SW wind 6 mph Cloudy Occasional sprinkle Felt nice to be back in the deer woods for the first time in over a week. Had a couple of young bucks along with a doe entertain me tonight. On a side note, I pulled a card tonight and it really could tell the story of what's happening now in the woods. Seeing some quality bucks but all movement has been shifted to darkness. Bachelor groups are finally busted up. because of this I have had one buck disappear from this camera. ( I believe he spends more time on the other end of the property). No doubt doe harassment has started. 4 or 5 instances of bucks chasing does including a mature buck.

Another young buck... Spike... Seems to have food on his mind. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Just had a cruiser come by. Young 8pt. Nose to the ground working the field like a hound dog. Sent from my XT1585 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
