Tips to properly bow hunt mule deer?

[Gametaker23]

Hey guys my buddy and Is attempting his first year of bow hunting and has asked me to help with glassing and communicate when he makes his stalks. we have gotten close twice now notching his tag just having problems closing in the last few yrds to get the shot off he is using a recurve witch I would would think would Make the task just that much more of a challenge any tips u guys are willing to give would be awesome and greatly appreciated thanks for the time.

He's got to get within 90 yards and then let 'er fly.   

Jokes...everybody.

Stalking mule deer with a recurve to killing range is going to have a high rate of failure.  If he's finding legal bucks and is able to stalk within 100 yards, he just needs to slow down and enjoy the challenge of getting within 20 yards or less.  It's going to be hard but it'll be awesome when he closes the deal.

For the OP....here is what I would do.........I'd pay a heck of a lot of attention to this guy.

He shoots via film more animal of every variety than most of us will see in 20 years of hunting. This was a great thread from last year and he shoots stick and string. Shoot him a pm....get a few pointers....and hope it all works out.

Don't know how your communicating during his stock but I think cell phone and radio guiding him in is illegal

Yea he has gotten within thirty five or a little out from there on both bucks today was our closest stalked within thirty and doe busted him and spooked the buck. It was awesome to watch even though it didn't all come together thanks for the tips guys

Thanks Johnathan for reminding me were the humor is , or that at least im not the only one that sees it ,,,I saw a way to hunt mulies one time , ive brought this up before but here goes, these guys get out of there truck and start picking weeds in the dark , when it gets light out they explain what s going on,they make a light blind out of canvas and tent poles , its got all kinds of pockets on it, its pretty much dirt colored and they fill all the pockets with the weeds , then they glass for deer pick out a target and very slowly move in behind the blind these guys were successful two out of the three times they showed and got a nice 3x4 35 yards away , it took 2 hours to get to him but really cool stuff, since were here again has anybody seen this ?
