Here, i will show you my main stomping grounds. I have numerous areas to hunt on the creeks and our river.


For a zoomed in look at one of my hunting areas, it looks like this


AfterI down load my area from microsoft terra server, i open it with paint, then i can high light my hunting area and pinpoint stand sites, i also always make a driveby and make a note of which crops have been planted in different parts or all of a field. then i print them and make a folder to carry with me in my truck. I hunt almost entirely private land, so if when i get some place and see another vehicle parked, i can leave that area for another hunter and quickly decide upon a different place. plus, during the off season if i am out and about and see a good buck, i can make a note of where i saw him for future reference.

Last but not least, i can switch over to topographic mode and print it as well, topos can really help a person to understand the lay of the land. of course down in the valley its pretty flat but the deer do use the terrain to their advantage, i see it as our job, as hunters to exploit that advantage

After I get off work and get done working out, I am going to go and chat it up with a few farmers that I have had permission to hunt on thier land in the past. I'm positive I still can, but I like to hear what they have to say about the deer movement in the area!

Yea i have the Cabelas Edition 4.1. They dont make them anymore as i bought it in 2006. But its taken over 4,000 pictures so i cant complain. It came with these bungee straps things that dont work worth a junk, so i put heavy duty bungee straps on it and it snapped one of the eye holes out [:@]. Now i attach it to the tree using my lucky shoestring that came with my DC-100 that i bought back in 2003 that doesnt work anymore.

I also have a Stealth Cam I450 that i bought in January. It ate batteries so fast that i bought th external battery pack. And like always the battery pack comes in the mail and the camera has a defect where it wont recognize it [:@][:@]. So i call Stealth and talk to a real nice lady who says that if i send it in, they will replace it for free :D. If the new camera works properly then ill be ecstaticbut if is had bugs too then im gunna fight them ;).
