How to set up on ‘The X’

When you are hunting ducks or geese you want to know where the birds are comfortable landing at. The best way to do this is scouting. Scouting consists of driving around following the birds flying patterns. Once you find the birds in the sky follow them to the field they want to land and feed at. Mark that exact point in the field wherever the birds are landing. The morning or night of the hunt go to the same location the birds were landing and depending on which way the wind is from determines what way you want to face and set up your decoys. Pro tip *birds land into the wind.
