Default RE: Big Woods Bowhunting for Bucks - Aerial Pics + Topo

Well I hiked into the area between the swamp and apples this weekend, and as I got close to it, freakin posted signs everywhere.......[:@]

I set up a good stand on the below photo where the purple dot is. There is a hollow there that goes up the mountain that also has a stream flowing in it, there are pockets of water there with deer tracks all over them, it looks like they are drinking there. It appears as if they are only feeding in the fields with the orange dots in them, the rest of the fields now have cows in them and are grazed down pretty good. From what I have seen years ago when I used to hunt this patch, they come out of those fields with the orange dots, and wander through the patch of woods between my stand and the fields and then up that hollow to bed down. Tracks everywhere in there but no rubs, it will probably be a good spot for does I think. I will hike in on the north side of the fields north of the stand and then cut down so I don't disturb that patch of woods on the way in. Can't wait!!
