This part I have to say is all you need to shoot big deer.
Time - You need to go out as much as possible

Money - You need as much of it to get you equipment, travel (local or to another state) and license.

Knowledge - This is the most important. It's not knowledge about the equipment but knowledge of your hunting area.

I did a post way back about "You aint getting it if". The point of the post was you have to hunt where the deer are that you want to kill. Sure you can stumble on the biggin kicked up by another hunter or event, but I would rather consistently see huge everytime out or at least know that one more the likely will be there.

It's possible and if you have that spot that's great. If your still looking don't over look residential areas. They are crawling with deer. Home owners want them gone. They are not only a nuisance but a health threat as well. The best thing of all is that it is prime hunting and the spot is free.

Good luck!
