LAST EDITED ON Aug-03-14 AT 02:14PM (MST)[p]I'm going to share something that i learned from a guy who hunts outside the wilderness. He hunts other places too but often pegs a couple big bucks in just that area.
Like most who are successful in this county, they hunt the trails. No news flash there as after spending the first few of over 30 years hunting this Zone, with some exceptions, i figured that guys who hunt the trails here will do better than the general run of hunter out there just because 99% of the country is so thick with timber.
The part that i learned was that they hunt the trails but not the bigger migratory trails that most people like to set up on. They set up on the little everyday trails that the bucks they are targeting make when going from bed to water to feed and back again. Some or most of these trails don't look like much, maybe just indicated by the disturbed foliage, but for those who put in the time to locate the better bucks, their daily trails to them look like a good head for the wall and a half full freezer.
In this kinda country, especially in the earlier parts of the year, IMO, this is good info!
