Your exactly right Jake. Sometimes the difference in the weather and browse from year to year varies enough to affect their travel times and patterns but they always seem to have their favorite trails and bedding areas as well as preferred food sources. Just like your original home area of MO , the White Oaks timber is the place to be here in Arkansas especially early season. Of course later when the rut starts it gets crazy.
