New to hunting and want to prepare over the next year for a blacktail hunt in SW Oregon. Realizing that the deer move up/down as seasons change, and food availability will vary with season, what are your guys' thoughts on how to start scouting in off season? My approach so far has just been to get out in the woods and pay attention to tracks, droppings, seeing deer, etc...I'm NOT asking for suggestions on any specific areas, but would appreciate any suggestions on a general approach. Thanks in advance!
