[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2203119, member: 91783"] It helps to have moist conditions for tracking but I have done a lot of tracking in dry dusty conditions and in sandy draws . The thing I find most helpful is sun light and getting in the right position to use it to your advantage so that you can see the subtle shadows of the small impressions made by their paws , the bent down grass's , hairs left on weeds , brush and fences , sometimes it's just a small speck of blood or something like that . It can be where an animal laid down in the grass . Tracking is so much more then just looking for foot prints it's looking for all the signs that are left by the animals you are hunting . It involves being able to read what you see so many people will see things such as where an antelope has went under a fence and left some under fur in the fence and think that it's coyote fur . It look similar but is a slightly different color and texture and smells like antelope . Time and experience are needed it helps to have someone that knows what they are seeing to teach you but you can take your time and learn it on your own slow down observe don't just look watch the animals see what they leave for you to observe and learn what they have to teach you about themselves by what they are showing you take note of it . It will help you in all aspects of your life to be more aware of your surroundings . Tracking is often just interpreting subtle differences . [/QUOTE]
