[QUOTE="dogbuster0006, post: 730974, member: 39547"] Growing up we only had a few large tracts to hunt most of ours were 10-20 acres here and there. Trying to use a locator howls on tape or even a siren if you can. Drive around the outside of your area, or logging roads/trails running through it playing the sounds. If you get a response set up and call if not move on and try again. This should help to concentrate your efforts and you at least know they're in the area. Using thermals and night vision would be great!!! never had funds to buy them for myself. As far as the misses is concerned let her pack the shotgun, or camera or something similar it'll keep her entertained a lil longer, if she's worried about you being out late can't help too much there..lol If you can use a suppressor by all means go for it. I would use the 14's head mounted and carry the thermal equipped rifle for shooting.
