Most of the time I hunt alone. I try to hunt the deep woods so most places that I hunt have light to moderate hunting pressure.

I always try to follow a few simple safety rules.

- I tell someone where I'm going and an estimated time of when I expect to return.
- Carry a cell phone in areas where you have coverage.
- I also wear orange, normally a hat and vest. If I'm hunting brushier areas, I'll wear more orange than normal(coat instead of a vest).
- If an area doesn't feel safe for whatever reason, I will usually pass on hunting there.
