RE: What should I look for?
Just walk and look for tracks. See how fresh they are. If you have problems telling how old they are, revist each day to see how they age.
You should be in better shape then you think. I was in your backyard about 1 month ago and wow things have changed. Along with that change comes less hunters and more opportunities. It's time now to look at new spots, check out other properties and get permission to hunt.
Good luck
