Dry as a bone, here......"Scouting"
I've got a piece of property (access) that I've never stepped foot on. I KNOW deer use this as a travel route.....but, to be honest.....I've been tactically "lazy" by thinking I could take care of all my deer hunting wants AND "needs" by hunting property that I'm familiar with.
I need to go in there and give it the proverbial "once-over". I'm thinking of going during lunch, today. I know to look for trails (however faint with all the dry weather)......and maybe some rubs (new or from last year.....though I haven't seen a new rub, yet, this year). I might not hunt this area for a while.....but one never knows. I suppose a creek crossing would tell me soem things, too.
I guess I'm just thinking out loud......
