Deer,...look for deer.
Seriously, this late, look for food/water sources then find a place where trails cross coming and going.
Good luck. -
Don't bugger up the area. Kinda hard this late. Good luckComment

Get a map... look for natural funnels from and to feeding areas and bedding areas. Set up between the two in a bottle neck. Get in there set your stuff and get out. Minimal exposure will be best 1 day out!
Thats probably the best you can do such late notice.Comment

Use the wind to your advantage and if presented a shot, Only draw your bow while the animals looking away from you.Comment

Nat. forest,
get as far off the rd as you feel comfortable. trails, waterholes, food.
Good luck and have a great timeComment

I'd stay out of woods, play the wind and sit where known food and water sources are. BUT stay out of the woods...good luck!Comment

I'd find a creek then follow the creek till I found a well used trail crossing it.Comment

Bout the best you can do this late in the game, If you havent scouted you have no idea where a bedding area is or what food source they are using. I would make as minimal an impact that I could.Originally posted by Nitro1970 View PostComment

I would find a good water source and set up there

This late in the game you have to resort to the way we used to do it back in highschool, hunt the side of the road. ....Keep your flamethrowers put up just a little humor.Comment

I would include dry bottoms also - easier to remember trail in/out
