Great information thanks for doing the video. One comment can you explain where you would set up based on the wind. For example when you put a blue pin down just explain where you expect the deer to come from and what way you expect the wind to come from. I’m new to all of this so trying to wrap my brain around it all. Thanks again keep up the great work you’re doing.
Thank you very much for the feedback! Setups are often determined in the boots on the ground portion. They depend largely on visibility from the bed, where the exit/entry trails are, satellite bedding, etc. I show that in the boots on the ground portion (videos are done, just need Dan to upload them when he gets time)
Thank you Jake are you willing to share that word doc? Also If you are looking to do a demo with a new guy I have a spot in northern MN that we could mark up and I could go check it out. Report back? IDK. How ever I can most help. THB crew has been very helpful to me.
This is an awesome video. Great job Jacob. Have you ever used the Shaded Relief feature on CalTopo? I’ve learned that with that feature I can see some points in hill country on a map that I can’t on most regular topos. I’d be happy to share some photos
I do! Shade relief is extremely clutch in finding the tiny, tiny knobs. I use a combination of a few filter settings. One being heat mapping and another with more emphasized shaded relief.
Thanks Jacob. Video was quite informative. Looking forward to watching more. Thanks. Also wish I was a little younger. At 71 I won't be putting on the miles that you do BUT it's all relatable!!
I'd love to see you do a mini series helping subscribers with not so ideal public land options do some e-scouting over zoom. Then having them report back with findings and/or success stories.
This is awesome. Really appreciate you doing this. It helps to be able to visualize the thought process and the strategy to be able to implement productive scouting/hunting during the season.
Thank you Adam! I know this video isn’t the most entertaining in the world but I made it for those who really care about the technical aspects and want to hone their craft. This video was made for people like you and when I hear that it’s appreciated, it makes me want to help out all the more.
Thanks for the awesome demo on how you e scout! This is something I’ve been struggling with for whatever reason and it helps to see how others use these apps. Even though I’ve had On X for a couple years, never made the connections on how best to use the tools in there. Looking forward to your other scouting videos and connecting your e scouting to your actual scouting and hunting!
Thank you very much! My camera broke while recording the boots on the ground portion. It's been a struggle trying tog et my iPhone to do all of the work, but I'll find a way.
@@jacobsklenar4731 always happens at the most inopportune time. Phone video is better than no video so i say do whatever you have to do if you can’t get a new camera.
Thanks Robert! You can also use the range tool to mark a lot of points along a logging road and get a visual representation of where people are likely to setup if you assume they’re within x amount of yards (say 300) of an easy access route. This helps a bunch for finding uncommonly reached areas
Great demonstration on how you mark out high percentage areas and how you approach accessing these areas. Choosing alternate access routes depending on wind direction can be difficult to determine depending on topography. Suggestions on doing this would be appreciated if possible. Thanks for sharing.👍
That’s a great thing to cover. I’ve had issues with this in the past, but I’ve found sometimes you gotta just buckle down, bring trek poles, and grit it up the steep hills of the easier access blows your wind into bedding. I’ve actually used rope tied around trees to get up and down bluff edges to avoid my wind blowing into bedding areas
You guys are the best!! I appreciate all the time and effort you all put in to making these videos and podcasts!! They are always so full of great info! Now tell me where to get one of them sweatshirts!! Lol thanks again Beast Crew!!!
You have to look at the benches and physically look for the sign. Often they are not as fixated on the leeward side of huge mountains, nut more leeward side of bench points...
Very insightful being such a young guy you definitely got your stuff together when you get to be ancient like Dan and myself I can't even imagine your knowledge and accomplishments.. Great work and can't wait to see the boots on the ground thank you..
After hearing enough Dan kill stories, I also set my radius at 1/4 mile from the parking structures - but then I hunt them. Don’t forget the overlooked spots just off the road! Anyways, I enjoy your content and feel it’s very worthy of being on the Beast Channel. I like your analytical approach. Videos like this are why I fell in love with Beast content in the first place. You managed to organize Dan’s approach of picking apart new terrain using mapping features and a step-by-step procedure. That’s very applicable to any hunter, especially those who hear Dan talk but do better with visual models like myself (or they are too distracted by his t-shirts). Hope you qualified! Cheers.
Thank you very much Adam! This comment means the world to me and this style has helped me conceptualize Dan's teachings and apply them better. I'm glad it could help you as well!
I swear he almost seems like Jacob could be Mario's kid. Voices and inflection patterns are very similar, facial expressions and they're both wrestlers. Sure he ain't Mario Jr? 😂 Joking aside, I wasn't aware of the waypoint radius feature. Thanks!
I really like that Jake is a part of the beast community. Definitely a great addition to the content. Hope to bump into some of the beast crew in the woods.
This is all private land pictured here. These tactics apply to any and every state. I won’t show any public land imaging, simply stuff that can be applied directly to public.
Yeah, makes sense man, I am still kind of salty about naming property like Fort McCoy, like was done earlier in the year. Sorry for my frustrations man. Many of the people were not happy when am actuality property was listed earlier in the year. In a previous video. Something like naming fort McCoy was to specific. Not your issue. I try and help people in my channel too, but it’s an ethical debate on how much to give away. Keep doing you! Appreciated the feedback!
@@RedBeardedPredators I gotcha man no worries. I appreciate your willingness to help others as well. There's definitely good and bad aspects to it. I think if any property was to be named, one that closes in certain areas throughout the year, has a lot of acreage, and requires purchase of an extra tag along with additional inconveniences would be the best option. It's kind of unprecedented to name the place beforehand and then break it down because it shows extreme confidence in your tactics and allows people to apply the things they learn directly. However, I completely agree that it brings a lot of pressure and really sucks for the people that have hunted those spots for many years. Like I said, double edged sword.
These gas prices are getting amazing! It’s about time! Let’s go Brandon! Oh fuck I mean Trump! Love these prices! Hell yeah! People that are pissed about it are the people that can easily afford it. Let’s go whitey
Great info. Thanks!
Great video!!!
Lots of info great video
Thanks Bryan!

Thanks for the reply. I’m taking a day off from work and headed out for a day of scouting public land. Looking forward to it!👍🏻
@@swampdonkey917 Good luck!

OnX also has an offroad trail app.
I use that app as well but unfortunately they don't really update it much for my region. Especially for timber cuts or ATV trails.
This is an awesome video. Great job Jacob. Have you ever used the Shaded Relief feature on CalTopo? I’ve learned that with that feature I can see some points in hill country on a map that I can’t on most regular topos. I’d be happy to share some photos

Heat mapping? I must’ve missed the part where you mentioned it if it’s in this video

That’d be great! I’d gladly help but I worry about people’s spots being given away. Maybe a one at a time type thing would help a lot
Phenomenal video! Great job! Keep up the good work!
Thank you Scott! Really appreciate the kind words!
Great breakdown Jake!
Thanks Joe! Appreciate the support from a killer like yourself
Very informative video, nicely done.
Thanks Ben!
Amazing demo! I learned a ton, thank you!
Thank you Bill! Glad you gained from this, it's always great to hear that the efforts were helpful.
This was great jacob. Thank you

Anytime Louis! Happy to help and I appreciate the support!
Your technic with the range and parking lots is brilliant. Definitely need to feature looking at the beds on the scouting and even rubs.

How would you mark the upper 1/3 on mountainous areas with ridge systems where the elevation may drastically change from one top to the next?
You have to look at the benches and physically look for the sign. Often they are not as fixated on the leeward side of huge mountains, nut more leeward side of bench points...
@@thehuntingbeast thanks. Appreciate the detail put into this video.
Thank you! Dan’s response is spot on here
Very insightful being such a young guy you definitely got your stuff together when you get to be ancient like Dan and myself I can't even imagine your knowledge and accomplishments..
Great work and can't wait to see the boots on the ground thank you..
Thank you very much Eric! I’m hoping this hard work continues to translate to success
Was there a follow up video somewhere?
There’s one on my personal page (the one I’m commenting from). I’ll be posting the second one once I get a good name for a UA-cam outdoors channel
@@jacobsklenar4731 looking forward to your channel. I'll keep a look out for it. Thank you
@@joshtrauger3088 anytime Josh. Very happy to have followers like yourself!
Enjoyed the video what are you meaning by 1/3 elevation
1/3 from the top of the hill down.
After hearing enough Dan kill stories, I also set my radius at 1/4 mile from the parking structures - but then I hunt them. Don’t forget the overlooked spots just off the road!

Appreciate the comments and support. Greatest hunting community out there.
Fort McCoy, now this... how much information are we going to really give away in Wisconsin.. pressure in SW Wisconsin continues to skyrocket!
This is all private land pictured here. These tactics apply to any and every state. I won’t show any public land imaging, simply stuff that can be applied directly to public.
I hunt SW Wisconsin and trust me, I feel ya on the pressure. But my desire to help others trumps my own to kill a buck
