As Bill nears the end of his summer scouting, he returns to the big plot where he saw two really good bucks a week earlier, hoping to film them this time.
For his last summer scouting trip, Bill heads to another of his favorite spots on the farm, a ridge he calls "Old Reliable". Along the way, he talks about the difference between a buck's summer and fall range, and how he finds their fall ranges.
In his first pre-season blog, Bill takes a walk to check on this year's acorn crop. He discusses how to identify different types of oaks, which ones are most preferred by deer, and when you should focus on hunting over them.
While completing the last of his summer projects, Bill explains the importance of bullet proof entry and exit routes. He goes into detail about matching human activity when setting up creative entry and exit routes to tough stands.
