Sam and I took this scouting trip, like many others, to pick apart areas we had hunted last fall. In season scouting during the fall allowed us to find many of these places when they were hot, but we were often taking our best estimate at the time for which tree or ground set up to utilize. On this scouting trip we were able to go through a list of factors to determine what really would be the most ideal setup. Those factors included things like shootability, cover, access, lighting, thermals, and common wind direction. It allows us to have a lot more confidence going into this season.
