very confused need idea's

[aj454]

I have been hunting around 15 acre's of land for the past 3 years. I have covered every inch of this property each year and have not seen one buck rub or scrape. I see doe's almost every time I go in there but have not ever seen a buck. I find this very strange and cannot figure this out. They say if the doe's are there the buck's will follow. Not in this case. Any idea's or thought's on what to do. I tried rattle,calls, and lure.  Thanks AJ

Have you tried a game cam? Also, 15 acres is very small. I've been on 100+acre pieces with no scrapes or rubs.

I hunt mostly my 16 acer farm. In the beginning I had mostly doe, and small bucks. Then I started planting food plots and it has only gotten better from there, now I have big bucks that come through. 3 things you need, close cover, food, and doe. You've got one, now you need another. I do NOT have any cover for the deer on my property, but I know there is some close to me in the state woods and neighboring properties. So I plant at least 2 acers of food for them, brings in more doe and the bucks follow.

Turnips are a big draw for us. Also consider fruit and nut trees
