If I can find the time. Spring is a good time here, either there is still some snow or the ground is soft enough to read fresh sign..... low foliage too. If gas was cheaper I would drive to my hunting area and sit in the area's that I normally put stands on. Stories..... peiople keep telling me that the bucks here loose their antlers in jan or early feb, I'v seen good bucks walking around until L8 march w/head-dress. Actually most of the bucks I see have at least one antler and I have always wanted a pic of a big Wtail w/1antler.
