In this episode, Zach and Jake talk about some of their experiences hunting during the peak of the rut when many mature bucks are "locked down" with does. This can be a frustrating time of the season but if you know where bucks hide when they do find a hot doe you can take advantage of the vulnerable places they go!

Topics Include: 

-where to look for locked down bucks in different habitats and terrains

-calling and decoying locked down bucks

-why bucks disappear during the peak of the rut
