I scouted some “new to me” public land back in the summer and marked it up on OnX to come back to during bow season. There are several bedding areas that I found, and I’ve now been back to hunt a handful of different spots all within 50-150 yards of these bedding areas. I’ve seen the same shooter buck coming out of one of these spots 2 of the 5 times I’ve set up out there. He’s been able to slip by while remaining in the thick cover at both spots I saw him from. I did a quick run through of the perimeter of the largest bedding area after I got down this morning. There’s a ton of fresh rubs, scrapes, and heavy trails leading into/out of the main area. It’s very thick, but I found a good tree along the main trail very close to where he’s bedding. The issue is, someone has a trail camera over one of the scrapes. Like I said, I’ve hunted 5 different spots all within 50-150 yards of this and I’ve never ran into anyone else out there. Do I go ahead and set up as I planned the next cold front or stay out being that close to someone else’s camera? I’m new to public land hunting and want to make sure I’m not breaking any unwritten rules.
