My parents don't approve of hunting but it is something that i've always wanted to do. I was 18 and bought a shotgun (all thats legal in IN) and drove on up to grandmas to the farm. In 2 days the only thing I ever caught was a mild case of immersion foot and a cough that lasted about a week. So a couple of years later I try my luck again finally I did catch something a 2 point buck in NC close to where I was stationed. It was purely luck because i just happened to wake up as it was starting to walk into the field. Well my former brother in law decided to show me the ropes and I later find out that he hasn't ever caught anything, not even seeing a deer except for the one he hit with his truck. :wallbash:
I try just about everything walmart and Dunhams sporting goods has to offer...Scent killer, doe estrus, buck calls, rattle bags...the list could go on and on...
The last 2 years I've spent atleast 8 full days (we have approx 2 weeks here)and the random morning or evening looking for something, anything. both seasons. I don't really know what I'm doing out there. I only sit and look around and stay as quiet as possible except for the random buck call or rattle bag noises. I have a climbing tree stand and usually get about 15' up. I spray doe urine on my boots and use all the scent killer stuff on my cammies. I take a shower with the scent killer soap and shampoo. I would think i'm as invisible to the deer as one can be. How can I get a nice deer?
Seriously...I need help!!!
