RE: Hunting Pine Barrens
At certain times of year there is an abundance of mushrooms in pine heads. The deer of course love them. If it's all pines there isn't much else in there. If there are any little opening usually you'll get some browse growing up. Approach it just like any other woods. Find the trails and work from there. Deer do tend to favor certain little routes and will leave sign. You just have to look. Hunt them where they butt up to any change in vegetation, like to brush or hardwoods.
