Default Lets share our "not so obvious" bowhunting tips.

Many times we see on here and in real life newcomers or those just starting out ask for tips and advice about bowhunting. Most of the time we see the usual such as locate food sources, stay in your stand quietly and as long as possible, study the land you are hunting, set up stands near funnels/channels etc. Lets use this thread to share our "not so obvious" tips/secrets that newcomers should know from our experience, and maybe all of us can pick up something as well...

Mine is...when you see a deer that is out of range or a doe that you do not want to take, study its body language and behavior and learn as much as you can. I have made a habit of doing this and it has made me such a better hunter. Things to notice and learn...

1-How do deer behave when they are eating?
2-what does a deer do when he picks up a strange smell?
3-What does a deer do when he sees something strange?
4-How does a deer react to danger?

If you can learn how deer live in their environment, it will make you a better hunter. Share yours!!!
