Some blog posts on deer hunting
« on: October 01, 2018, 04:31:11 PM »
I just started hunting last season, so I have no expertise to share *at all*. But being a systematic guy at heart, I kinda felt like I needed to document what I've managed to pick up - and the process of picking it up might be interesting to others. And perhaps what I've learned might be helpful to folks just starting out.

I'd love feedback and suggestions. I'm two seasons in, and still feel well short of landing my first deer.

Very well written and nice to read. Stick to it and learn from every encounter you have with all animals. Figure out what works and what doesn’t (such as how you’ve already done) stay at it and all the pieces will soon come together! Good luck thanks for the post

Nice blog, that 4x4 is a dandy for a blacktail.👍

You know you can bait deer right? 10 gallons at a time, I would use apples as deer love them.
