At some time during my deer hunting "career" I grew weary of hunting normal sized bucks and developed an interest in shooting trophy bucks only. There was a considerable learning curve involved in changing my hunting tactics from the good buck to the monster buck, but I searched out all the deer hunting tips I could muster from the most successful deer hunters in the country.
The techniques needed to hunt mature bucks with giant antlers were not the same as the ones I'd used to hunt regular bucks. As the years passed, and through a lot of experimentation, I figured out many secret tips necessary to bring down the huge deer.
Does your hunting area have large bucks? You typically never see the largest bucks out there. However, don't just give up on an area simply because other people haven't seen big bucks there, as they may be missing something.
Keeping that in mind, there are areas which do seem to be centers of activity for these monster deer. To give yourself the opportunity of taking one of these shy creatures, you must take your deer hunting to where the big deer are. It is a stubborn fact that there are areas which do not have a single truly large buck, much less several of them. However, it is true that there are particular factors which do lead to a higher percentage of giant bucks in an area.
Just ask some people who are in the know in order to find out, once and for all, where the big bucks are in your area. Ask around with all the career hunters and game wardens in your area; even ranchers and farmers can help you, as can feed store owners, to tell you where sightings of big deer have been made, so you may know where to go. Even the local coffee shop or diner can be a place to find information on local deer population.
Your objective is to see if there are any large bucks locally, and where most of them have been sighted. Don't forget that you're after the big deer, not just a bunch of average deer when you are asking around. Your goal is not to find lots of small deer, of course. You're after a trophy rack.
Should you presently be on a lease or are otherwise committed to one specific area, determine the areas or stands that have produced the biggest bucks over the last several years and find out if any big bucks have been spotted in any particular place. This is a good place to begin. A word of warning, however, and that is that deer stories approach fishing tales in their reliability, so you should get as many verifiable facts as you are able.
