I'm very thankful for your computer scouting tutorials over the years, back to when you showed how to overlay a pdf map into a KML for a Garmin, which truly was a DIY innovation. Even now with resources like OnX available, I appreciate your work on this channel.

I was literally doing some digital scouting on a marsh when this video was posted. Great stuff, really appreciate the info!

Garrett, man you've really matured in hunting, filming and editing. Outstanding video. How about more of these, especially since you're traveling to various states. Excellent job bud.

Your comment of at least bring hip boots is so true. I’ve wasted countless scouting trips of trying to follow the small trails from woods out to the islands. I also have my own color management system. It’s so much easier to look back at a glance and see what you have found. Great vid, thanks for sharing.

That was very informative! Thanks for sharing your method. I didn’t realize Onx could do all that.

Really good info I like how you pre-plan your boots on the Ground scouting trail would also love to see a video on Hillcountry scouting great job

This video was great for me. Very helpful in seeing things I may be missing while scouting and also made me realize how I do not use onX to the full potential.

Top notch content, Thanks, good luck turkey hunting this year.

Good stuff garrett as usual my friend very well done

Very good information. I'm hunting VA. and we have some marshes but your use of onX will be helpful with the diverse public lands I hunt throughout the state. Thanks.

Very informative video! Great job, hope you keep on posting those. It would be great to have a video about ground setups.

I'm currently working an area & I will be done in a week. These r close range spots on slivers surrounded by river backwater. All prepping is 4 saddle hunting & is way back. Need 2 finish this ASAP since turkey scouting starts soon. Quite a bit like island hopping in marshes but much darker. Those r a lot of good tips. I am going in from 1 access & if I choose 2 take a deer it most likely will leave via a kayak 2 load @ another destination. Sometimes u need all the info 2 go the extra mile 2 see things most won't see or no exists. Great content as usual.

Excellent review, great job. Thanks

Great video. Looking forward to additional terrain types

On X is a good tool for when you get turned around. use a compass to point north then turn phone so north lines up. I have turned 180 deg. and found my way out. also it helps you find a down deer by adding way point on tracking.

Good info as always. Thanks for sharing.

Great helpful how to video. Could you do a Big Woods scouting video like this??

Good system, I can tell you've done your homework. Thank you.

Excellent tutorial! Great video as always

Another very informative video, I love my ONX app for scouting and organizing info. I just finished changing colors of some of my waypoints for easier recognition thanks for the tip, no more sea of red. Would you please make a video about scouting and hunting the driftless areas of WI, IA and IL showing terrain funnels, bedding and feeding areas.

Great content. Thanks for sharing.

Definitely would love to see how you do this with big woods scenarios.

Great info. Thank you! I’m in Michigan and trying to learn how to hunt. I grew up sitting over bait piles thinking that was the only way. If you could show some mapping for woods and swamps, seems to be all we have in Michigan public land.

Excellent job of explanation.

Definitely wood love to see this for hardwood ag field set ups with rivers and creeks running through them as well as hardwood, ag field, ridge set ups. I am hunting Fort Riley, KS area and those are the two main features I see.

Great system. Thank you

After watching this video. I checked out my onX maps. And after I scouted previously and marked trails and saw signs. Everything the deer do in my area follow the highest point mostly on the hybrid layer. The 1100 marked lines. Cool and very interesting.

Like digital scouting even more than review videos it is a great tool to save time.

Great Video! A hill country video would be great. The areas I hunt are hill country . Thanks.

Hi. Yes could you do a tutorial on big woods around Lakes. Lake Bottoms and River Bottoms? Awesome video!

I really appreciated the video. I would love to see how you would scout all terrain types, especially river bottoms. Your OnX waypoints are a lot more well thought out than mine. It almost makes me want to delete all mine and start over...but not happening

Very cool video!

Thanks Garrett very informative! In indiana we have medium woods surrounded by ag. That scenario feels like there is really no place off limits to anyone and you will find hunter sign right off the road and trail all the way to the furthest points (and everywhere between). Feels like shortly after season starts a bunch of deer get pushed out to ag field tree lines which for public land hunters usually off limits, given the world we live in these days gaining permission is all the more difficult. Would love to hear your thoughts and any changes in process for that type of scenario. Love your stuff and enjoyed the public land challenge contribution a couple years ago and look forward to learning more from you and the other gents from that group. Thanks for all you do!

Great Video and fantastic insight. Wondering if you could do a video about the same info but in the Badlands portion of the US i.e. Western NE, SD,ND, and Eastern WY, MT. Just curious. Good job otherwise!!

Great video! I use brown and the sasquatch symbol for other hunter sign lol. Id selfishly love to see a big woods video about this.

Could you do this type of video but for a big woods/mountain piece like you’d find here in WV/PA/MD?

Good video. I need figure out how to combine the plan with a compass because I hunt in area were I always have trouble with GPS signal. I carry both an IPhone and Garmin GPS, and wind up with no GPS signal and no good way to mark way points.

Great breakdown of your scouting process! Do you generally take a late summer trip back to a spot like this for a speed scout to check for fresh sign or do you just trust what you saw during winter scouting and scout for fresh sign when you go in for the first hunt?

Garrett great video...do a lot of the similar things but really don't do the color coding which I will begin to do... really like that. How much do u use trail cams ? If u do, what main factor of an area determines if u will go back and place a trail cam? If u don't mind me asking how often will u hunt an general area before moving on?

How would you compare on-x to hunt stand

Hey awesome video per usual 👍. I was wondering where you purchased and which brand pole you are using at 6:58?

Dang, looked on the DNR website and that fish lake area has more access & parking areas than an international airport and I suspect just as many people seeing it's around an hours drive from the twin cities.

I tried a pair of Mavens at the Iowa Deer Classic. Are you a fan? I've been thinking about trying to set something up for a side by side with Vortex. They seemed like they had incredible glass and would love to hear your opinion.

Is their ever an area you’re scouting that you would decide to skip the boots on the ground part, going just off onX? Or do you try to walk the land even though you’re doubtful via the online scouting portion of your scout?

Have you ever dragged a buck threw a swamp before? OMG...! Can't imagine unless you quartered it. Sounds like a nightmare to me.

I would like to see flat land surrounded by a lake that leads to a river

Literally 5 mins from where I live.... 😭😭😭
