Default RE: map help

IMHO It looks like there are three habitat types close to the cut beans at the top of the picture. In my experience, this is a wildlife treasure. You have mature hardwoods, early successional growth, and ag fields. So I would set up in the travel corridor between the bean field and the hardwoods, on the left side of the picture, at the bottom of the open area below the bean field. Some scouting will reveal the trails, and remember, the bucks will often travel parallel to the doe trails until the rut, then they will probably travel across the doe trails. In the morning the deer are probably traveling to higher ground, and evening will bring them down hill, but they probably travel different trails in a.m. vs p.m. If you can find where they bed in the day vs night you can set up between the beds and food before the rut, then as rut gets going, set up between two doe bedding areas. Hope this helps, be careful, cause the first time you go in the woods will probably be your best chance to kill a trophy.
