When i was younger (12-16) i would just go out into the woods and sit in a "good Sot"....needless to say i never killed a deer.Then i got my bow and starting putting effort and time into my scouting, since then, 4 deer in 2 years. Now this year i will have the most time available to mebecause i work part time in the evenings, which gives me every morning to hunt.
