new map
Not sure how this is going to be quality wise. This is a state game lands. Its high pressure but big big bucks. Any info on what we see here? This is what I consider lowland and the tracts are small with roads all over. I don't know how to approach this, I am guilty of being a hunter who runs as far as I can from roads and other hunters. I know there are giant deer and lots of hunters. I am going to hit it up this winter, but going in blind where do we start?

Re: new map
I have been taught and seen bucks bed on the contour line 2/3 up the hill. This would be a great place to look for beds.
Just curious what state is this? Lots of hills there.

Re: new map
It looks like in your case the 1400 foot mark is that 2/3 elevation where bucks like to bed.

Re: new map
I agree and generally where I hunt has much more elevation change. I was unsure if the same tactics were the appropriate on this type of land.
Thanks

Re: new map
It looked there were water sources at high elevation. Have you checked those out?

Re: new map
This is just map study. I have never been able to hunt it but will have a shot this year. A friend has seen some monster deer while hunting and I may hunt it blind in November
