I got a youngster with a youth deer tag. Well the past weekend he missesd a big buck. The buck took off seprate from the 6 does he was with. My question is will this buck come back into this area.and return to his does he seemed to be close to rutting or in the early stages or shall we consider him long gone and hunt for another buck he has one more weekend left . Thanks for any info!
 
He may come back if all the does were not bred. It is hard to tell, and he may be in the next county looking for other females. Some will come right back, and have seen it happen. If he was big enough, may not be a bad idea to check it out.
 
Im guessing you have the NM youth tag that started on Turkey day and starts again Dec 1-2? If I were you I would persue that same buck, especially if you think your the only hunter in the area that may have pressured him. If there were other youths out in the same area, it may be worth while to find another set of doe's..if not, get back after the big guy! Just my two cents, good luck!
