[QUOTE="extremesolo, post: 2429225, member: 70801"] If you really want help being able to visualize what you are seeing on a topo map and using it to speed up your learning curve I highly recommend buying the book Mapping Trophy Bucks by Brad Herndon. I have a fairly extensive hunting book library and this is easily the best book I have as far as being able to read and apply the concepts. He does a great job of describing a what a particular terrain feature looks like in real life, how deer utilize that feature and then shows actual topo pictures diagraming the feature so you can pick them out on your own maps. I reference it often and it is a game changer especially if you are just going down the rabbit hole of online scouting. Once you get the idea it will save countless hours of scouting time in the field. You can narrow down a few likely spots to actually put boots on the ground instead of wandering around in worthless locations. [/QUOTE]
