I've been trying to teach myself to deer hunt over the last 3 years. I didn't get to go out last year because I fell out of the tree stand before the season even started...ooops! To begin scouting the area I'm planning to hunt I look over the topo maps. Once I have narrowed it down from the maps, I'll put boots on the ground and go look for sign. I'm hoping some experienced hunters who know what they're looking for on topo maps, can give me some advice. Either to confirm what I think I know or correct me if I'm wrong so here's what I'm looking at. I've marked the areas in RED I think I should look at in person.
Also, how do you find a bedding or feeding area? I know bedding area is usually where there's thick brush but that's it.
