If you are a long time hunter you may find these deer hunting tips a bit obvious, but they are basics that can be reviewed, and some things beginners need to learn before they go out.
If you’re a beginner you should know there’s more to deer hunting than walking into the woods and just finding a trophy deer to shoot. You need to preform a lot of preparation work, follow safety precautions, and be disciplined.
You can increase your chances of a successful and have an enjoyable hunt by following the hunting tips discussed here.
1. Tips For Safety:
· Never consume any alcoholic beverage before or during a hunt.
· Always take care of your gun as if it was loaded and ready to shoot. You should never count on the gun’s safety to prevent it from firing.
· Never under any circumstance jump a ditch, climb a stand or a tree or cross a fence with any loaded gun.
· Do not pull the gun’s trigger unless you are completely certain that you are aiming at a deer. If there is any doubt about your target, do not fire.
2. Tips On Getting A Deer:
· Begin Early – Although a lot of hunters like to hunt all day, the best chances for finding a deer is during sunrise and sunset. They are more likely to come out of the thick brush during the early morning and late pre-dusk hours for feed. Be sure to be in your deer blind or stand prior to dawn in the morning and prior to dusk during the evening. Arriving early is vital, in order to properly set-up prior to the arrival of deer. It is truly agonizing to watch that trophy winning buck dart away due to you arriving a little too late, not giving yourself ample enough time to finish any preparations.
· Eliminate Scents – It is important to remember that deer can smell scents very easily, so do what is necessary to eliminate any human or unnatural odors. While it might be a scent that your spouse and friends love, to a deer it smells like danger. Do not use any cologne, after shave, deodorant, perfume, or scented soaps/body wash. Prior to going on your hunt, wash the clothing you will have on in an unscented detergent or with plain water. Due to how sensitive a deer sense of smell is, they will be frightened off by the slightest scent.
· Remain Still – While in a Blind or Treestand
, refrain from moving and do so very carefully when you must move. One of the hardest things for me to learn to be a successful hunter was how to slowly look from side to side as I sat for hours in a deer stand in the freezing cold. Deer are highly skittish and will run from any quick movements.
· Be Silent – Being absolutely quiet is the key to having a successful deer hunt. The incredible sensitivity of a deer’s hearing has amazed (and later on disappointed) me more than once. They become very cautious and wary when they hear a human voice or any kind of unnatural sound. If you are hunting with a partner or in a group, make sure you talk in as low of a whisper as possible and, if possible, rely on hand signals for communication. You also have to be careful not to hit you gun or binoculars or your metal stand or clang the two together.
These tips are really simple and basics, and while there is a great deal more out there, if you follow these basic deer hunting tips, you’ll find your chances of success are dramatically increased.
