What should you zero in on during your post season and spring scouting trips, and why?

Question:
What should you zero in on during your post season and spring scouting trips, and why?

Answer:
You should have three goals during your off-season scouting trips. One, locate scrape lines because they could occur in the same place next season. Two, look for rub lines because they help you unravel buck travel patterns. And three, always be on the look out for cast antlers because they let you know the quality of bucks that survived the firearm’s season, and if you are scouting in the early spring, those bucks that survived the rigors of winter, too.

    Good luck Dee! Target panic is probably the most common problem out there (IMHO). I'm always battling it.
