While Steve Proter is a bit of a tool, I like what he's trying to do. But don't for a minute think he's not gaining a profit by doing this. And I'm not saying he shouldn't but he hides behind the fact that he will.
But the MNDHA is garbage. I was able to figure that out as 15 year old kid.
I like hunting water, especially creeks. With out setting foot on this property, I like where the creeks converge. I also like where they go through those stands of oaks. They need 3 things, food, water, cover. The first two are obvious. The cover could be for bedding or escape and travel...
is the blue dashed line a creek?
If so, on the bottom of your map with contours and the creek, I'd scout that lowest area south of the trail, where the creek meets with the wetland and the oaks. If there's not sign there, the deer aren't eating those red oak acorns.
I'd get my stand in those wetlands if it were me. Get off those trails and into the food transition along the wetland or find some bedding points in the wet.
Then learn "shit about shit" and get on with it like the rest of us have to do in a job. I realize it's a pipe dream to actually think the government can accomplish something but a guy can deam.
How about if you're too old not to shit your pants during a speech you're too old be in congress. That should clear up about 3/4 of them for a fresh batch.
If you can't get done in 2 terms what you wanted, it's time for someone else. 2 terms...that's what I'd like to see.
