Scouting, Hunting for Turkeys, Planning Next Deer Season

="all" />

The early spring is a great time to be thinking about the fall deer season. Not only because it’s the most optimal time to find deer sheds, but in many areas, the woods are at their bare bones. This allows hunters to really see the structure and topography of the land, and especially deer sign.

It’s also about the only time of the year I really bust into known bedding areas in search of more information about deer I am hunting, without caring if a spook them or not.

As a dedicated turkey hunter, I walk miles and miles in the spring. Although my ears are always straining for the next gobble, my eyes are looking for a new treestand locations next to bedding areas.

Time is sparse in today’s busy lives, so take full advantage of every time you hit the woods.
