Help a rookie out here...
Other than someone telling me their honey holes, how valuable do you consider preseason scouting in an elk unit that is mostly timber? Especially if you're hunting the last week of September? How much will patterns change barring snow and cold?
I'm worried if you find elk August 15th, they have a new zip code September 25th.
Does it do more harm than good?
Are you better off to sneak through it bow in hand?
That said, any tips on hunting timber other than play the wind and 2 steps ang glass?
Thanks
