None, but I got invited to hunt someone's spot on the opener. And the one other hunt was private.

Does that include internet scouting? What about google earth scouting?

I'd be curious to see if the 'None' votes are due to having private land or choosing not to scout.

No, and driving over a bridge don't count either. Boat in the water, or mud on the boots.

0 only hunted private land
Shopping with your husband is like hunting with the game warden. Experience is what you get, when you didn't get what you wanted.

Interesting survey Guy, I am surprised with the lack of scouting, says a lot about the people on this forum, at least the ones that care to vote. I am sure most will not though.

Lake hunting looking tough this year due to low water & lack of cold fronts.

I have completely covered two public lakes around me... I just wish there was enough water to hunt the creeks. The third one is a wasteland, never had a good hunt there. I always look for the spots that other hunters won't get to or won't use- but it's tough when the birds only seem to concentrate on the crowded areas.
Wasn't born in Texas, but I got there as fast as I could.

Yeah water conditions are really bad, and it just seems to get worse every year.

I never scout anymore. Now to me I think it is a waste of time. Unless I am hunting north for mallards, there aint no need.

Only 2. Found out that at one nearby lake that it was too deep to put out decoys near shore far enough away from houses. 92ft deep 10 yds away from shore is crazy deep. (Lake Merwin) Silver Lake is good.😀 Just sayin for those internet scooters.
