I've just picked up my new Fisher F2 but I can't hunt until the spring. I figure its a good time to research some good hunting grounds. I just happened to find an old map online dated 1877 of my area. It's perfect because it shows all the old roads, who owned each plot of land and also a dot for (I believe) each residence as well as schools and churches.
Anyway most of the land now has been redeveloped and the homes (dots) are long gone. The only reasonable spot where homes were are in the middle of some farmers fields that are now plowed over. Would these be good spots to md or would I be wasting my time? There are a few old roads running through some fields that are grown over, I might check them over as well.
Let me know what you think. Also if you have any tips for researching it would be greatly appreciated.
