In you opinion what is a hunter's greatest advangtage over deer? Is itcover scent, camo, calls? Just curious what everyone's opinion is and why they feel that way.

High Powered Rifle ... for the obvious reason

i say our greatest advantage used to fool the deer would be scent. I know people who have hunted in jeans and been succesful. Being able to fool the deer by not letting them wind you is a huge advantage.

I agree.

I think the Greatest Advantage for bow hunters is a tree stand.

Proper Treestand Placement

If the treestand is in the best possible position...
I dont need a high powered rifle
I dont need to be fanatical about scent control
I dont need to take long range shots at animals
I'm shooting at animals that dont know I'm there!

Intelligence! An intelligent hunter uses the right tools at the right time to fool his prey. I remember a hunter a few years ago that spotted a monster buck bedded down in an open field that left him no way to approach with the wind direction at the time. He knew if he were to have any chance at all, he would wait until the next day and maybe a more forgiving wind direction. He scored that beautiful buck by waiting. How many people could do that?

Being ableplan strategies an rationlizean a deeper thought process of hunting the whitetail deer.



Oh, an the invention of C'mere deer.

Yeah, right.

Has to be his brain and thumbs.


Deer have everything else over us.
