All the threads recently involving trail cameras and such has got me wondering...what are you guys' opinions regarding what "holds" a hunting spot such as a trail or water hole? I realize that on public land nothing TECHNICALLY holds a spot, being that the land is open to all. But the question is this...does a trail cam show that an area is taken? A treestand or blind? Which one? For me, it's a stand or blind. That shows me that someone has definite plans to hunt the area. A trail cam to me says nothing more than someone is checking the area out, possibly hunting, yes, but no set in stone plans to do so. That's my feeling, but I want to hear some opinions from others. I know some feel differently, in fact I know of one guys who claims he'd pass over a water hole with a trail cam but wouldn't hesitate to hang a stand at water that already has a stand from someone else. Weird. AND YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!! Let's hear some opinions...
