I saw my shooter buck and a small 8 bedded down together this morning. The only deer I see moving are right at dawn and dusk. I have been on this farm for 4 years and normally the place would be going nuts. Is my shooter buck gay?
 
yes. spray yourself with dominent buck lure and give some high pitch grunts. be careful though if u mess with the bull you mught get the..........well u know.
 
I don't think so.. He's probably not the dominant buck in the area.. Some deer like the company of other deer.. If you ask me.. I'd say we're in a little bit of a lockdown period now. At least, I think your bigger, more mature, deer are in lockdown..

I suck at bow hunting. I'm losing my patience and getting burned out.

Don't get to down.. I'm not having a good year either.. Back to Back EHD years have really taken a toll on the buck population in my area. Few people in my area are even seeing or harvesting big bucks..

It's all about being in the right place at the right time. Everything up to the point is an educated guess.. Thats what hunting is.. An educated guess in everything you do.. If you keep at it and apply what you learn.. It'll come. Keep having faith and you will prevail..
 
I went to the taxidermist last Sunday and I only saw about 5 racks on his table. I believe it's a slow year for everyone
 
It is all about getting lucky and having a hot doe in the area. Was slow most of the morning until a hot doe ran through an adjacent ridge (100yds away) with 3 bucks in tow. The first in line was a giant, then they seemed to go down in size and age. After they went through, obviously not interested in any calls I saw the second buck come back through on the other side of my stand. He had blood on his tines and looked liked a whipped pup! I tried to call, but clearly he just got destroyed by the big guy!
