Newbie hunter, looks for tips for first successful season
#61

If it's your first season I highly recommend doing a lot of stalking. Even if you spend a lot of time in the stand and that's how you want to harvest, no problem, but nothing teaches you how the deer in you area move and think like simply walking around and tracking. The last thing you wanna do is set up a great stand with great gear all ready to go and then just spend days sitting there. But if you already know what you're doing and have a great spot, my recommendation is honestly good snacks that smell as little as possible and something to read.

Go peddle your poison somewhere else, you need a prison cell with a huge man who likes men for a cell mate!!

Here are some tips that can help you have a successful first season:
- Do your research: Before heading out into the field, make sure to research the area where you’ll be hunting, the game you’ll be pursuing, and the regulations that apply to your hunt. This will help you be better prepared and increase your chances of success.
- Invest in good gear: Having the right gear can make all the difference in your hunting experience. Make sure to invest in quality clothing, footwear, and equipment that will keep you comfortable and safe while you’re out in the field.
- Practice your shooting: Being able to shoot accurately is crucial for a successful hunt. Take the time to practice your shooting skills before the season starts, and make sure to sight in your rifle or bow so that you’re ready when the time comes.
- Be patient: Hunting can require a lot of patience, as you may need to wait for long periods of time before seeing any game. Make sure to bring something to keep yourself occupied, such as a book or a game, and try to stay positive even if things aren’t going your way.
- Stay safe: Safety should always be your top priority when hunting. Make sure to follow all safety rules and regulations, and always let someone know where you’re going and when you plan to return.
