If there is a creek on the property that can yield nice finds. Also if there are barbed wire fence lines, look there, usually easy to walk along too. Trees along fence lines are often trimmed back by both land owners and wildlife and are often not removed completely and can yield natural bonsai by having been cut back year after year. Shady areas are usually bad, trees will be long and have little lower branches as they are reaching for light. This thread may also be of good use. I would also suggest the podcasts with Randy Knight and the Backcountry Boys.
