So I'm totally new to deer hunting, and as I look to the season ahead, I had a couple of questions. First, since none of my family is into whitetail hunting, I have few resources as far as land access and such, so I'll primarily be hunting on public lands (I'm in MO). Does anyone have experience using stands on public land, and if so, what type (climbing, ladder, etc)? Or, should I just set up behind a tree. Also, most of the land I hope to hunt (and that's close by) is heavily wooded, so I was wondering whether I should look into slugs or a rifle. I have access to both, but wasn't sure whether there were specific advantages to either for wooded areas (no restrictions in my state against use of a rifle). Lastly, I have lots of camo for waterfowl, but none that would be suited for Missouri woods in november, any suggestions on what's needed at a basic level? Thanks for any help.
