Scout a ton. I have always loved scouting but I have taken it to a new level this year. Been out at least 5 times for an average of 4 hours a scout since the season ended. Finally got a GPS and am working hard on mapping and exploring many of the areas I hunt on the military base.
I was invited to join a hunting club this year so the area I'll hunt is going to be different than I'm used to hunting. I plan to scout more, bush-hog as many areas as I can to promote new growth and make shooting lanes.

sometimes i think deer just parachute out of the sky
I'm on the fence right now about our main food plot. We planted a turnip/clover/rye mixture this past season, and it proved to be a more mid-late winter source for the deer than in the fall/early winter. I've heard that it's best to give a certain plot a least two years to allow the local wildlife to become accustomed to it, so we may replant, or we may plant a new mix of heavy clovers and some sort of protein.
I'm hoping to also add a smaller plot adjoining our main plot. Not sure on what plant I want in there yet.
what are you going to do?
