Hi folks, Iv'e posted a few times on this forum and found it very helpful. I am headed out for my first Mule Deer hunt next week to SE Idaho (unit 75/76) and have a question on glassing:
While doing some virtual scouting, it seems that generally speaking the North and East facing slopes are heavily timbered/covered. And the South and West facing slopes are generally open or sparse.
Should I be glassing into the thick cover (North/East slopes) or should I be sitting in the thick cover and glassing the open facing South and west slopes? Does this change in morning or evening?
(I realize this is a total newbie question!)
I have a 20-60x80 spotting scope I'm planning on using...thanks in advance!
