lakelurker is right , i've been hunting them for years .
now some other tips that will help you to track there runways .
deer like traviling boarders , like the woodline that boarders a feild , a ditch that runs along a road , the edge or banks of a stream , stuff like that .
if there is a road that has woods along it's side , go in about 20 feet or so and you will find a path that runs paralle to the road , most likley the deer made that path .
now the best kept secret to baging a deer . keep still and quiet .
forget the fancy gadgets and gismoes that you see on t.v. , the only buck those things will bag is the buck in your wallet .
i've gone hunting with my bow strait from work , sweat , oil and just grungy and got my deer . sure going out clean is a lot better but i have a few years of experiance and know how and where to be . i crush up ferns and rub them on my clothes , it covers up scent better than any store bought stuff .
if you look in some of the old postins on this board you will see some of my deer from the last couple years and you will learn some of the stuff i did to get them .
you will see some doe's too . some guys hunt bucks only , thats o.k. with me , i hunt to put meat on the table . does taste better to me , but , i do have my share of racks on the wall too .
i'm glad your excited about the upcoming hunting season . i'm pretty excited about it too . i hope you guy's get a really big buck on opening day .
