Never scouted one spot
You never know the overall conditions of a square mile. The more areas you can scout, I always thought I was better off. Some areas always had more deer than others. Over hunting! Too many hunters! Poachers!!! I could never be sure. But I never bet on one pot. If the pot looked bad for a day or two, I'd move. I moved to find the deer. Never expected the deer to come look for me.
