Default RE: Scouting techniques

Check any droppings you should come upon. Doe droppings will usually be scattered, Buck droppings will usually be in a clump. This is not a hard, fast rule but is true more than not. The sexes usually use their own trails. I seen a buck using one certain trail one year and it was littered with clumped droppings. ( This buck was shot at night by a poacher. We run him off, but didn' t find the 8pt. buck til morning and the dogs/Coyotes had found it.) Other trails were scattered where I knew does used.
