I posted a picture of a big double beamed buck in the trail camera section earlier this year. I was sporadically getting pictures of him, but it is clear that he does not call our place home.. Anyhow, I saw him this morning on the way to work in a green soybean field. There is a cold front moving through today and I had planned on hunting him. My only concern is that he was almost exactly 1.5 miles (as a crow flies, I measured on out digital imagery at work...) from where I have been getting him on camera. That seems like quite the distance for this time of year. Given the openness of the terrain in the farm fields where he was, the distance seems even urther. I am trying to decide if I should still sit my stand tonight that is near my camera? Or stay out since he was so far from the area this morning? Thoughts? I heard the best chance you have of killing a deer from any particular stand is the first time you hunt out of it. I will post a map of the general area so you can see what I am dealing with.
