Solo...although it can feel like a "needle in a haystack" feeling for me as I walk onto a new area, I get used to it becuase it is such a common experience. I kill deer every year on spots I found just that day, out in the middle of the woods. But I get to thinking how hard it can be really, and it just boggles my mind. I bet it feels good to scout a piece of property just knowing noone is gonna mess up your hunting area and that you can target bucks you see....ahhh the life!
