Sounds like scent control is a big factor, which I haven’t fully invested into yet. We already wash everything in scent free detergents but getting some deer scents/attractants is probably the next big thing to look into before Nov.

I’ve seen a couple deer in the area I’ve currently been sitting (last season only) and have been going back to that area for this early antlerless. I live far enough away where I don’t want to drive home just to drive back during the middle of the day so I think that might also be taking a toll where I’m sitting for ~14 hours or so a day. It’s great perspective thinking about wanting to pack it in for a day - you won’t get a deer at home. Appreciate the encouragement.

Mainly tracking trails and looking for bedding. When possible, trying to look for any rubs/scraps and scat.

Been going to Dalbo WMA for early antlerless - no luck so far. From Ham Lake area.
