Regional notes

Average for state's limited mast habitat.

Hunter implication

Mixed conditions — some areas with productive oaks, others without. Scout for the pockets that produced and hunt the travel routes between bedding and mast. Plots and ag fields still hold deer where mast failed.

How to hunt a fair mast year in Idaho

Mixed conditions reward scouting. Find the productive oaks and set up on travel routes between bedding and active mast — food plots, ag fields, and persimmons still hold deer where mast failed.
