Scouting A New Area

[DirtTime]

Found a new WMA early last spring. Hunted turkeys in there a few times, and boy is it thick. I went out yesterday morning and came in from the NE access point and noticed some decent sign as well as some food sources. There's persimmons, wild grapes, and a ton of oaks with a lot of mast from last year still on the ground as well as the gray squirrels are already knocking this years green off the trees.

This spot has a lot of potential being a newly opened area, but I bet it gets hammered with traffic once the season opens.

 

Just a couple pics of some tracks and one of the runs I came across.

Nice , I went out today myself and found a little bit of sign but was mostly disappointed. Best u can do is keep scouting till you find em

BTW, what does persimmons look like ? I assume it’s a bush ? 
 

Thanks

They look like crab apples sort of. Or wild plums.

 

Just do a google search.
