4. As you walk the perimeter of the area you're scouting, you'll record a
series of flag points that will be used to draw the scout plot boundary.
You need to set enough flag points to roughly outline the area's corners.
For example, while scouting a square soybean field and looking for deer
entry points, you could record the field boundary by setting just four
flag points.
To set the first scouting flag press ENT and the scout point menu ap-
pears. The name Flag(1) is entered automatically and the S
AVE
button
is already highlighted. To create your first corner flag, just press ENT
again. The flag point is created and the scout point menu is cleared.
Back on the Map Page, the message "Scout 1" appears in the lower
right corner, indicating a scouting session is under way.
5. Repeat these steps for setting a flag at every major corner of the area
you're scouting. The iFINDER will link the flag points and draw the
perimeter of the area you walked.
Tip:
You can record game sign waypoints as you walk, but you don't
want to include them in the boundary of your hunting area. To
avoid drawing the boundary line around those waypoints, when you
press Enter to save a point, use the
↓ and ↑ keys to select the de-
sired symbol for the game sign you are marking, then press ENT .

lect a different symbol.
