Native american hunting methods
 
Does anyone know what methods the original bowhunters used for deer hunting?
I always think of them while hunting and admire their skill. I know I would have starved by now, even with all of this fancy new hunting gear.

They had the best "Natural Gear", they used the deer hide as camo!!

I know one method that we cant use that they did , they skined out a deer and draped the skin and head over top of themselfs and stalked on hand and nea to shooting range . I have seen guys out west do a sneak behind a pronghorn decoy before though , kind of dangerous nowadays .

if the message is not to be believed or at least appreciated than why post it and get angry when someone choses to disbelieve you

I can tell you this from experience, Do NOT try this. Especially while wearing doe estrous as after shave. I did not get my buck, but he got me!
I wonder if he'll call me?

Huntingirl89,

I am jealous of you and the Indian ways. I wish I could do the things
you and your family do. You are very special for learning the ways of your
elders. [:-]

Thanks much huntingirl89. I enjoyed learning about your ancestors culture/methods etc. Info like this is why I joined the club. I shall try to become ONE with the deer this late bow season in NY. If I succeed I will forever send thank yous to land in the sky New York. Where is this land in the sky?

Thank you huntingirl89,
It was your signature on a different post that prompted me to ask the question.
Now tell us more about "charming the deer";)
