that no one can beready for EVERY scenario "BUT? bypractice for every possiblescenario we cantry to be ready for the ones thats we are most often faced with.
I come a whole lot closer to being prepared for them by taking a shot. On more than one occaision I have either slapped the arm of a rain coat or bumped a limb in the stand on the shot that saved me from making that same mistake on a deer.
Over the yrs I have found that by talking to other experienced bowhunters? And I will agree that mostshots are pretty much on ave the same that has accured before
I guess that's great for your area of the country but in my area (and all the other areas that I travel to) when the bucks are rutting and chasing does around you, you don't ever know where they are going to end up. I am glad that all of your deer cooperate so well
.....no offense RTA but did you even think about that before you typed it?...........rotflmao
That does not mean that there exactly the same?But by practicing the way we hunt and knowing our equipment helps tremenously on shots that may actuallyaccureand if you find your self in a difficult shot scenario that you are not sure or confident enuff to make? Don`t take it
That's exactly right and that is exactly what I do. I just take it one step further than you do
Than why even say it like you had? I am begening to wonder about you
Oh I have, I was just being coy[8D]
Ijust think it isfoolish to shot arrows into the dirt especially while your hunting (imo)if you practice like you should you want have to do that
I can respect that because I think it's foolish not to. Just differing opinions that's all.
For a experenced hunter to say that suprises me.He is ether hunting tame deer or finced in deer in a small area that the deer are used to seeing and smelling humans.
Are you hunting tame or finced deer silent
Experienced is spelled with and "I" and fence is spelled with and "E", but I digress. No, actually I spend most of my time hunting public ground.
We definitely see deferent on this subject.I think the white-tails nose is one of the most important things that a hunter has to keep in mind at all times and try to avoid at all possible times.If a white-tail in the wild winds a human or picks up human scent it will not hang around for very long and will be at full alert.[&:]If you believe all this crap you are saying then you are more naive than I thought..
We diffinitely do. I agree the whitetails nose is it's best weapon but I still think it's highly overrated. I set my sets and hunt my sets to avoid the whitetails nose, but I have lost a great deal of respect for their sense of smell over the last few years. You can call me full of crap all you want but at the end of the day my record speaks for itself. I am 30 years old and I have been bowhunting 16 years and I have killed 12 bucks that will score 120 or above in an area that isn't known for big deer. So if being full of crap will continue to net me those kinds of results then that willbe fine with me
What if you miss? Will you go home.....or just continue to hunt WITHOUT the confidence
Well I will tell you what I won't do and that is make a bad shot on an animal when my equipment has been knocked off
Let me ask you guys a question. What would you do if you got out there and didn't find out your equipment was off?
