Usually when I go to set up my stand for the season, I look for an area that has good sign(trails, and rubs usually), but this year I only saw one mature buck. I am going to take scouting a lot moreserious because I know people have seen more mature bucks in the area I hunt. When do you guys start your scouting? I have heard that people start right after the seaon. Others start in the spring and some wait till late summer. I want to do some scouting all year, but dont know what to look for during the different times of the year. Where are good places to look for bucks in the winter spring and fall. What sign do I look for in winter(just trails)? and are those trails the same ones they will use during the season?I am also going to buy a trail camera to see what deer are on the property.If you guys can just give me your scouting techniques(per season is possible)that would help a lot.Thanks.
