RE: Scouting tricks and tips.
First of all, I would sit in my stand one saturday, or whenever you have some time, all day. the next day, I would spray the bottoms of my boots and pants legs with scent killer, and walk the deer trails and thick stuff. That is what I did. I would try and do this in the off season though, or do it one weekend and wait until the next to hunt it.
