Some people think that the odds of them winning the lottery warrants them spending money on it...regardless of what they might think however...that doesn't change their odds of actually winning it...

Stated another way...While it is a nice thought to believe that every property absolutely must hold monster bucks even when the facts prove that is extremely unlikely to be the case...that doesn't make old mature bucks miraculously appear where there are none...(the rut might, (make them appear), but it won't change the fact that they fact that they don't live there right now.)

We have been jokingly calling that guy..."ramblin man". Since August he has not stopped moving showing up on cams over a half mile apart every few days. More surprising, even when he feeds off a corn pile he only takes a few bites then moves on and never spends more than a few minutes actually eating the corn even though he often stays in the area for awhile.

My guess is he just a very peculiar penchant for the rut and just started engaging in rut like acitivites several weeks too early...now his body is showing the ware as he appears to get skinnier by the week.

Amen!

Every property holds bucks, but not necesarily monster bucks. Just enough to complete the mating process.
