You must think those does just stand in the thickets while the bucks do their business?Doesn't matter how many does you have, if they aren't ready they will run a Helluva long way with buck in tow. They certainly aren't holding bucks on a 200-300 acre tract.
Our place is about 1400 acres... its shaped such that I can see a long ways from my ridge.
I"ve had on multiple occasions a buck on a doe, and seen them from 400-500 yards one direction, come past me and continue on 600-800 yards past me, and on and end up another 500-600 yards away to be shot by one of the old idiots on our place that thinks he is owed a decent buck every year....
And they can cover that ground pretty dang quickly... like in 10 minutes or so at times it seems.
