So I finally found an oak flat to hunt on public land. It's not getting any pressure as it's much further than any normal hunter is willing to travel. >3 miles from the nearest road/path/trail. I happened to luck out and walked into it when I was doing some power scouting on Friday morning after a sit.
How close to the actual tree's should I set up? Should I set up outside of it on what I believe to be a travel corridor? Should I hunt it now or wait until the end of October/Beginning of November?
I would hunt it before things change. Where would be determined by wind, kill zone, tree type for climber. I try to climb poplar trees. Stand sets in them real good. I'd also take a camera along and hang it.
