Burned out spot ?
Hi all! I am new to the site and I want to ask a bit of help from you guys.
Here's is the situation, before hunt I installed 3 treestands on my 100 acres land where there is trails and food. 2 weeks ago bought 3 trail cam and installed them in each spot. there is only 1 cam with pictures and it took around 800 hundred photos in 6 days, half with nice bucks at all hours event the middle of the day.
So first day of the hunt I go to this stand with the intention of staying all day, mornings comes and I have a ton of problem of finding this stand in the dark, and starts walking around and I believe, leaving my scent everywhere, finally find it and stay all day nothing.
second day I let this stand cool off and try the other one (this one easier to find in the dark)
Third day I go back to the first stand and same problem this stand is really hard to find in the dark, i walk around for 15 minutes trying to find it. nothing all day.
Do you think my best spot is burned out ? what do you recommend ?
I will put tape to mark the path, is it too late ? let it cool off for a week ? go only in the afternoon ? forget this spot this year ?
