The art of winging it: Here’s what to target when a new deer-hunting trip presents itself

Those who know me would tell you I have a bad habit of floating wherever the wind takes me when it comes to deer hunting. There’s a running joke that if you need anything from me in the fall, you’d better get it prior to November, because I completely disappear off the grid once the calendar turns from October.
Apart from getting me in hot water with my better half, it often results in me winding up in new places I’ve never been and having no idea where or how deer move on a property.
