Newbie and I've got questions
I've been an avid deer hunter since birth pretty much. I've got 3 farms that only I hunt... All the other guys in my family who hunt say that bow hunting is the only true way to appreciate deer hunting. Normally when I gun hunt its with a muzzleloader, I have both modern and traditional. I like the close kills and waiting for the right shot. My questions are
1. I'm used to still hunting with my guns. Can I do that and be productive or is doing time in the stand the only way to go here?
2. If I go for a stand, should I go climber or permanant and how many locations? Do ground blinds work? I usually go 3 - 5 locations with gun.
3. Any general advice would be great. I'm thinking my average shot is going to be around 20-30 yards but it could be closer. Kinda wondering how I should set my pins.
Thanks all
