Title: Aerial photo experts
Post by: troutms on December 07, 2007, 11:25:00 PM
Are you good at looking at aerial photos and picking good hunting spots? If so, would you be interested in helping me? I would like to email the aerial of my hunting spot and get your opinion on where you would set up. I've already picked some places, like the obvious funnels and inside corners, but maybe I've missed something. Let me know and I'll email the pic with some information. Thanks for your help.

Have done a lot of aerial analysis for operational readiness while attached to NAVSPECWAR, what are you needing? You just want a quick tutorial as to ow to read the photo?

It's on stickbow.com JBiorn, I know how to read topos and aerials, I just wanted someone else's opinion on where they would put some stands.    I put it there because it's easier to do. Sorry for the inconvience. Thanks for your help.

Troutms,

Aerials are "dark age" technology. Google Earth, even the free version, will take you most anywhere you want to go and will also faciltate pre-scouting new locations from above. Just tell us how to get to your hunting spot via Google Earth using a (very) near-by address, zip code or coordinate.

Try this exercise if you're not familiar with GE. Go to the GE site and type in YOUR address and be prepared to be amazed!!!
