Howdy folks! I would love to hear what strategies and timeline you guys follow for preseason scouting. I pretty much exclusively just run a bunch of trail cameras on feeding areas and travel corridors while keeping an eye on the acorn crop.
I hear a TON of folks talking about glassing fields, but I do not hunt open farm country....I hunt mixed pine/hardwoods of varying age class in the upstate of SC. So I feel that observation stands/glassing is not a super viable or realistic option for me without blowing up the woods with my scent; however, getting impatient and checking trail cams too often likely is blowing up the woods just as much if not more.
Let's hear how you guys keep an eye on bachelor groups and what your strategy is behind it. I'm an adult onset hunter and am therefore a sponge, ready to soak up any wisdom offered...
thanks
