Fire/Burn area maps

Seems like I've seen a topic here before on this, but I can't find it.

Thanks!

Hunting Tip: "Make Your Own" Dominant...

Here is a tip that was passed along to me - and I have not tried it yet - but it looks (and smells) like it will work fine! The gentleman that gave it to me regards it as his secret weapon and he is a VERY successful hunter. Get a fresh tarsal gland off of a decent buck - I think the ranker, the better. Taking them off of bucks that are hot in the rut seem to be the best because that is when the glands are the darkest and have the most "male buck" scent... Take that gland and put it in a good,...
