G'day buttonbuck,we don't have whitetail deer here.but i would of started scouting after last season,looking for main game trails,and feeding area's,if you find bedding areas watch them from a distance you might get to see what size buck is living there,better still get a scouting camera set up not only will find out what deer are using the area but you will get some great photo's...matt
