been doing it for a long time. sometimes I call myself coyote hunting. but, yes, as long as I don't educate something it kinda helps get it out of my system so to speak. how 'bout you?
Not so much on that front but especially on public I like to set out a line of mock scrapes anywhere around areas of concentrated buck sign to try to take stock of what is roaming the woods in a particular area. Once I find an area with a decent or multiple bucks showing up regularly I like to refresh those mocks specifically up to bow season for when they begin to split up. Then i will come back through & try to pick a fight with whichever buck decides to lay claim to said area in particular to try & **** him off. To want to come looking for a fight with the intruder.
