The strategy for having a large reference map is to record the topographical features of you hunting area and include; forested areas with types of vegetation, fields and field edges, knolls and hills, water, swamps, other low lands, deer hunting stand sites, deer trails, deer bedding areas, buck rubs and scrapes, deer kill sites and dates of, prevailing wind directions, and other map information you would find useful.
