This is one example of what I'm talking about. In the picture below this is public ground. The buck is bedding on private ground that I don't have permission. I had a buck patterned last year and he was going down through that bottle neck right at dark. There is boots to the ground scouting, this was tires to the ground scouting.
I put together a plan of attack. I was going to have someone drop me off on the East side where the timber is narrow. The moving car would be a diversion so to speak. I was going to walk the timber edge and set up where the yellow dot is.I'm all about low impact with good results and second chances. I wanted a SW wind. I could have hunted with many other winds. But I wanted my wind blowing into an area that wouldn't burn any more timber/hunting area. I think I called this blowing into waste land. I don't know if there are more deer bedded in the timber so why ruin any chance? Thus I wouldn't put all my eggs into one basket.
As it turns out I didn't get the wind I wanted. The buck changed his pattern, as I was hunting another area that I killed a buck in. So I never did hunt that pre planned set up.
I know, I know, poor me!!!
