We hunt on private and public land.The first 3 days of the ML seasonwe will be huntingabout 40 minutes NE of the city on private land. We`ve seen lots of sign( beds,rubs,some scrapes, major trails, droppings) and we have 2 nice treestands to use. I use a CVA...50cal...100gr Pyro...285gr Buffalo Bullet, open sights.
Good luck on the opener guys.
