Hand held gps helps a lot! Be prepared for the environment you will be entering/weather. I like to scout right after deer season is over and also during the summer. Take a rifle or shotgun and hunt while scouting, depending on the season of course (squirrel, dove, pigs etc) Google earth is your friend!!

Public hunting scouting question.
The Hunting Public is moderately new hit YouTube video diary arrangement highlighting two particular playlists, Public Land and Private Land chasing and they exist in view of this very rule. Co-proprietors, Aaron Warbritton, and Zach Ferenbaugh are modest in their way to deal with chasing, particularly on open chasing grounds. The Hunting Public group (Aaron, Greg, Zach, Jake, and Brody) archives the high points and low points exploring all through their seasons, which makes their video diary as enlightening as it is engaging. The Hunting Public strays from the conventional instructional exercise approach of being educational on paper, rather inclining intensely on the unscripted reality of committing errors, gaining from those missteps, and adjusting forcefully to remain in the amusement just before the camera so the watcher takes in the lessons by seeing them as they happen.

I follow them, great video journals. They are the real deal.

Agreed. I really enjoy their videos. I love hunting videos that just have the sights and sounds of nature (as opposed to rock music blaring in your ear) and give solid tips and tactical advice. I’ve learned a lot.

A lot of good advice has already been given. Here are my .02 cents...
1) try to figure out what the prevailing winds are for the areas you are going to hunt. Once you locate a good spot see if you can find multiple sets for the spot. minimally , figure out your set up for the prevailing winds and for when a cold front blows in.... Also, see if you can access the spot from different directions for different winds...
Best advice I can give you is to go out into the wonderful outdoors as often as you can. You can learn a lot from just going for a walk in the areas you plan to hunt. Best of luck to you.

My question is how do y'all go about scouting public land? If cameras are allowed do you use them? When do you start your scouting? Any advice is appreciated!
Thanks!
I always tried to go at least once a month till about August. I have used cameras on public and never had one stolen. However I hid them very well.
Most people don't realize how good PH is. I usually killed several animals every season. The biggest headache I had with public was illegal dog hunting of deer.
Have fun, its worth it.

If you carry a firearm = yes you have to wear orange. (seems like the bird watchers should have to wear orange, not the person with the gun...but rules are rules)
Yeah, that doesn't make sense that hikers, or bird watchers etc don't have to yet we do. Thanks a lot. I'm definitely gonna get out there soon for archery season
