What is absolutely essential for Deer hunting with a Bow or Firearm before,during and after the Rut? Being a new hunter and wanting to be successful during my hunts,It is real easy to be overwhelmed by all the STUFF that is put before you by the experts in magazines,TV shows and well meaning hunters who can afford the newest thing that guarantee's success. I have enough stuff to hump to my spot and a limited budget for hunting.I use a climbing tree stand for when I have to get up high,so the less stuff I need the better. I realize that there are different situations that will require different amounts and types of gear,cold weather,deep woods hunting etc. but for your typical morning evening hunt this is what I have in mind. I'm not expecting to get a Monster Buck though like most everyone else I would be glad to get one if he happens along. My goal is meat first a doe is fine, then a respectable Buck would be a bonus. Thanks- I have not seen anyone comment on the need for attractants like Doe urine or Buck sent products.Does this mean that most of you don't use these products and keep them in you essential catagory of things needed in the field?
