Also does fight like that to fight predators off, like coyotes, wolves,and a fox. White tailed deer can sprint up to 30 miles ... ... middle of paper ... ...earned as it pertains to predicting exactly where any buck will be at any given moment we can't. There are too many variables to consider. Even with all of that lastest technology at our disposal you still need to use some of that old fashioned woodsmanship skill that was a critical necessity of our forefathers to read landscape and ultimately see how a buck uses it. Thats a good thing.
This pride comes from knowing how hard I have to work. Deer hunting includes much more than the split second of firing a gun in the woods. The hardest part of hunting may be waiting what seems to be an eternity until the start of the season. While I wait, I have many things to do in preparation for the hunt. The first thing that needs done is scouting for stomped down popular deer trails that are little more than narrow paths of mud and feces.
Once the animal is found and recovered, the bigger game you will need a atv of some type to haul your kill out of the woods. Dragging a deer that weighs upward to 200 pounds to your truck is a very hard task. Now once the deer or animal you are hunting is back home, you want to hang the deer up and field dress your kill. You want to start by making two cuts behind both back legs and Slowly start pulling the hide downward toward the head of the animal. This way you can reach the meat.
It was a buck, as I had thought, but it was bigger than any deer I had ever seen. My heart began to beat very rapidly and I breathed deeply to try to calm myself. These deer would step into a clearing in a few feet, and I needed to try to be calm to make a good shot. I picked a spot where I thought that the buck would pass and estimated the distance. I guessed the range to be fifteen yards and waited.
I knew that now I genuinely had no choice but to make the time I had hunting count. I now was even more eager to get into the woods to hunt. I’ll never forget the feeling you obtain when you see a deer: your heart pounds out of your chest, you become extremely skittish, and you try rapidly to gain a satisfying look at it all while trying to keep yourself stable. I had all of these feelings in mind the morning of the first day of the youth hunt. It was finally time to pack all of my gear up and into the truck to leave for hunting.
Introduction The Red River Métis began their organised bison hunts soon after 1820 (Gerhard, 1982). The hunts did not take long to become a major part of the Métis culture and heritage. This would end up being a major source of income for many decades. As the ice age glaciers started to melt, the bison and other animals started moving onto the plains, the Métis then used this migration to their advantage and started hunting them (Gerhard, 1982). Some First Nations, particularly the Dakota and Assiniboine, relied primarily on the bison, utilizing every part of the body and carcass (Gerhard, 1982).

Many Americans believe hunting is a barbaric solution to a cute and cuddly problem. They believe that the animals will sort themselves out if humans do not interfere. The fact is, these well-meaning animal-lovers are wrong. Animal populations are soaring, and the modest tag limits imposed upon hunters leave them unable to control those populations.
It’s a brisk November morning like any other day, but today isn’t any other day, today is the first day of firearm deer season. Shots are going off everywhere like world war three declared on deer. I’m wrapped in every hunting garment I own but winters cold embrace always finds its way in. My cheeks are rosy red and my breath was thick in the air. As I raise my shotgun and pull the trigger, my heart races and my hands shake.

Bow hunting for whitetail deer is both a challenge and a passionate sport for me. One challenge comes when you want to hunt whitetails and cannot find a place to hunt. Every hunter has been in this position at one time or another, for whatever reason. The good news is there are places to hunt locally, if you have the patience and knowledge to do so. The areas that I want to talk about are state-owned game areas.
