Question for you guys. Would you take a chance on making a trip to hunt an area that had been burned over (just underbrush) this past spring?

I ask because we were all set to head to this place (public land) I know very well, but my buddy e-mailed me and asked if I'd like to go to another place (private land) an hour farther north. He said that it had burned over this past spring. I'm not confident that it's had time to re-bound. I know that a spring burn would, depending on exactly when it was, could wipe out all of the summer browse and there wouldn't be much to eat until the acorns drop.

I'm intrigued by the area he suggested, but I have an uneasy feeling about going in blind to a new place that burned earlier this year.

Any inputs?
