Well, I had a rare nice surprise this weekend. The place next door to mine was offered to me for deer hunting. It's a 1/4 section,mostly hay and grazing pasture but there are a couple pockets of trees scattered around it. Looks like I need to do some recon... It has not been hunted on for quite a while either. :)
Think it's too late for setting up a pop up blind?
Still hunting and spot and stalk scouting into the wind. Once you find a good location or two build natural ground blinds. The fit in and the deer become accustomed to the quickly.
Ragnarok Forge took the words right out of my mouth...
Good advice and if you do go with a pop-up, brush that baby in heavy!!
Good Luck. i would watch the fields with Binoculars. It will give you a good idea where to start.
I would go for it by setting up on a point or draw, the usual deer kind of spot. see what happens.
Scout it during the middle of the day, if you find some hot scrapes, set out a trail camera, it will tell you what bucks you have on the property in just a few days. I wouldn't be without a few cuddy's. RW
Survey the area and find the trails in and out. If one comes to a wooded patch set up in the patch or in the field as mentioned above.Try and glass the area at early morning and noon and evening to get a pattern on them and then proceed from that point.Good luck
If you don't know the property well Google Earth it. Can give you some real insight. If you have a gps you can make some waypoints so your not just wandering around if you see something interesting .
