I am having some serious trouble on the place I hunt. All the spots I have scouted are consistently unable to be hunted. The military base just closes them down day after day. It has been killing me for two weeks. I just have to adapt and move on or risk going insane. That is all I can ever do on this place. Below is a map of where I am thinking of hunting tomorrow. I am either going to be taking a big gamble or an educated risk...I cannot figure it out. The colored lines are where I think deer will move based on the wind and funnels. The road is a huge interstate. I figure a buck could scent check all of the low lying hills based on tomorrow's NNW wind, yet remain undetected as his scent will blow out into the interstate. There is also a great funnel where the blue line comes through. The red line comes from a no hunting zone(swamp) and the deer can move under the overpass as it is the only place they can cross for like 5 miles. The green line represents normal scent checking behavior. I put the orange dot where I am thinking of setting up.
5B Sean. I set up on 5C the other day and had a decent 6 point come by scent checking. Let me know if you want the coordinates to the spot. Should be the same wind.
