RE: Scouting
geterdun : If you never hunted on this land then you should get a topo / aireal map of the place , then look forwood lots , pines , creeks , rivers or small lakes and ponds.
When you do go out walking around try to be therejust before day break so you'll be able to hear / see the fly downs cackles and the bigboy's gobbling.
If you can't get out that early , then look around old logging roads for tracks , look around big oak trees for feathers and droppings.
