I knew he was in the area majority of the bow season and not traveling to far. I was only able to hunt the stand a few times with the right wind and weather. SPYPOINT cell cams worked great to help get an idea of when he was starting to move during daylight. It was early morning about 7am when I saw a doe behind me running around in the bean field and I heard a few grunts. I grunted back with my extinguisher grunt and the doe ended up running directly away across the field. Saw the buck some out of my woods and walked to edge of beans behind me and make a scrap. He then jumped back across the barb wire fence and walked right to me at 20 yards downwind. Make a perfect shot and he ran 70 yards. Was able to share the track job with my dad and grandpa.
