They can be great tools to learn what is moving when… and what kinds of odds you’ll be facing if you choose to sit there.
I like the trail cam idea. I've been looking at them all day. No good sales on right now though. :( Maybe next flyer

The fecal fishing guide sent me a link for these. $65 ish on Amazon. His pics look pretty decent.

Once you identify an active trail between feeding and bedding grounds pick a good straight tree that is 10 - 20 yards off the trail. Put a treestand up about 15 feet off the ground (helps with your scent) be sure to buy one that will carry your weight or buy a ground blind. Get into your stand/blind at least 45 min before dawn and stay as long as you can. I usually get out of the tree around 11am and get back in around 2pm for the afternoon sit. Treestand = Killing Machine.
