Whitetail Deer Travel Tip

Large major trails such as this one are often used by does and fawns. A quick check of the tracks on the trail will usually prove this thought correct. Mature whitetail bucks like to be alone and will usually only use the main trail if chasing a hot doe. Look for his travel routes to parallel these main trails, possibly on the down wind side. If you can find these trails during the Pre-Rut, you should increase your odds of seeing the bucks you might have been missing due to sitting on the wrong trail.
