Last 4 years I’ve been able to go hunt in Missouri for whitetail. I’ve connected on 4 doe all inside 40 yards. Both from the ground and my saddle.
This year I really want a legal buck (4 points or better on one side is legal in this county). Last year I did a lot more scouting than ever before. I found buck bedding on public just behind the family farm. Last year I jumped two off their bed going into this area. Had a few giants on camera feeding under some white oaks less than 50 yards from the bedding.
I’m going back next week for the whole week. Should I start fresh and scout all over? Head straight to that bedding area and hunt the wind for that spot? Look for and hunt over fresh scrapes?
My uncle just connected on his farm with a nice 8 point on a food plot. Should I sit that plot or try to get in bed with these bucks? Feeling a bit anxious but trying not to put pressure on myself and just enjoy the opportunity.
