Just to expand on some of what Frank has highlighted. Scouting for the next fall hunt typically starts in February when the foliage is down and interior of the wood patches is laid bare for easy observation. many will also wait for spring turkey season starting in early April to plan a combination turkey hunt and scouting trip. Number of properties versus number of stands. We encourage everyone to bring as many stands as they have and to have multiple properties scouted to maximize options. At least two properties and rarely more than 4 the first hunt. As scouting and hunting trips accumulate several more properties are added to the hunter's overall knowledge of the land and he will soon get to the point of having more places to hunt than time available.
