Thermal Hub Example

Unread postby MOBIGBUCKS » Fri Jan 17, 2014 4:06 pm

Hey guys,

I was doing some online scouting and was curious if this land feature is a Thermal Hub or Crow's foot etc? I'm trying to pick out spots like these on topo maps. Anyone tell me if I'm in the Ballpark? Thanks

I am pretty sure that is a thermal hub area.

Here should be a crows foot example:

Can someone give a quick cliff notes on these features?

I had the Herndon book and the Hill Country/Marsh DVDs, but lost them in my home flood this summer to resource.

Appreciate it!

I would describe a crows foot as... when a ridge ends with multiple points.

Now these crows feet type points are best when each of the points have bedding. If you can locate a buck trail that connects back together from each of the beds, that should be the spot to hunt. Most likely that will be the staging area.

I COULD BE WRONG with my thought of a crows foot. I know I have read mention of a "high crows foot" I bumped the thread I posted below. Autumn Ninja mentions a high crows foot.

Autumn Ninja describes it really good here with examples.
