Doc says I've caught the CRAB FEVER
Nocturnal Buck

anyone have any tips on trying to get a nocturnal buck out in daylight.
I know the property I hunt isnt a bedding spot but a place to eat with acorn clusters and a food plot I planted in the field......kill plots that is 4.5 acres in total with buck oat/winter wheat blend. My problem is I have this buck that literally gets to one stand at 530PM. I cant scoot any closer to property line then I feel like I am that guy sitting the lines that everyone hates.
From there he goes and parades all the other stands getting a belly full of food plot grass and then corn at the other stands. He is driving me crazy.
Just looking for any tips to switch up his habits in more of a favorable way.
Folks say wait til its cold well here on the east coast it has been far from being seasonably cold. Someone did say you can always try and set an alarm clock for when he shows up at the other locations at night. May force him to be focused more on his first spot.

He is standing in front of stands on another property?
I've never done it but I've talked to guys who say to leave smaller corn piles in different spots every few days to make them hunt around for them but they say it can take a while to get their habits changed.

I do whatever i can to slow them down on my property ,this makes them come through later. Water holes are a great aditive to any property.
