    Map Readers....

    You guys are better at topo maps than me. Just got granted permission on this small 60 acre spot. Going in blind for the season ... would you head straight to the NE area trying to catch bucks coming off that island or somewhere different? I believe the hunting pressure is somewhat low on...

    Map Scouting a new property

    What do you think of this property from a map scouting perspective? It is a 120 acre piece that can be accessed by road in the left hand corner on the west side of the property. Could access by boat as well but I wouldn't have that option. Where would you start your focus?

    Small piece of land. 30 acres.

    See anything that stands out that you'd set up on. Can't hunt it during the rut. Hunting it this weekend.

    Map Reading new spot.

    I can hunt inside the red circle. Took a bigger picture so you could see the ag field in the lower right. Initially thinking the saddle in the lower right would be a good starting point. There is nothing planted in the field in the upper left. Won't have any time to pre scout and won't have...

    Map Readers. Take a look.

    I know boots on the ground, have to put in the work, etc. I get all that. Just asking if you like looking at topo maps, where would you start? The camera/pic waypoint is where there was a good rub line. Hunted that a few times. Super thick 20-30 yards to the north of it. Didn't have any...

    Sitka Setup

    I have never owned Sitka. With a $1,000 dollar budget would the Stratus Jacket, Fanatic Hoody & Stratus Bibs be a good stetup for mid-to-late season? Hunting temps typically 35 - 40 degrees? I hunt in WI and mid-season it seems most mornings around the 30-35 degree range. I want to make sure the...

    Sitka Gear

    I want to invest in a warm setup. I hunt in Wisconsin where temps can get chilly. I get cold easily. To the people that have experience with Sitka, what items are needed to complete the setup? Does the coat and bibs suffice? Or are you pairing them w/ their underlayers as well? I've been looking...

    I like picking your brains on mapping.

    Anything catching your eye for a few days of a hunt in the rut? Can access from the roads on the North and East side. Not seeing a lot of pinch points. No time to check the property before hunting it.

    What stands out

    What stands out in this section of a property? Access is from the west, which is a County Rd. The black line going across is an access road. The north waypoint is a real good rub line. The south waypoint is a beaten down deer trail. If you were to approach this property in the rut what...

    One more for the pros....

    I understand boots on the ground, observation sits, etc. But because this is a mapping thread I want to post one more in the forum for people who don't mind looking at maps and giving their opinions. This 1500 acres. Swamp/Marsh and woods (some oaks). Primary food sources are going to be off...

    Where would you pay the most attention to?

    I've hunted this property for two seasons. No significant hunting pressure on this part of the property. About 100 acres. I just started running some trail cameras so hopefully will get a better idea of whats around soon. I've only seen 2.5 year old bucks so far. Only bucks I've seen have...
