WT are in the rut right now I have been calling in bucks since early Nov and action has really bumped up I the last few days. Missed a big buck yesterday
There is tons of reasons you may not be seeing WT and it comes down to straight up looking in the wrong place. The MU or section of that MU may have a low population. If you are looking for WT in areas you think look good for MD
that is likely another big problem. If you have figured out low land thick bush BT think more along those lines
In most cases( not all ) WT are lower elevation look at areas that are gradual hilly areas, flat terrain, valley bottoms, rivers, ravines with flat bottoms and mixed timber. Get in the bush don’t rely on them coming in the open. They are a sprinter that is built to run and prefer ground they can utilize this
Tons of info on this forum if you do a search
