[QUOTE="Buzzard Breath, post: 5670334, member: 3158"] I learned to bow hunt while hunting farmland in Central Ohio. Here was my typical setup for hunting a small woodlot during the rut. Total woodlot was 19 acres, we could hunt 15 of it. The predominant wind was from the west. There was always wind. Bucks would cruise just inside the east side of the woodlot, scent checking the entire woods. I'd setup about 30 yards from the east side (red dot). I couldn't set up any closer to the edge, because the wind would blow over the trees, drop down, and get sucked back into the first 10-20 yards of the woods and just swirl. I would get a lot of younger bucks cruising the edge of the woods, making/checking scrapes. But, the mature bucks always stuck to the cover of the woods. It's super fun hunting when the rut is going full blast. I just grew bored with it and now hunt the NF when I go up there.
