Urban/suburban deer are absolute masters of knowing when humans are a threat, and when they are not. They seem to have a way of knowing our...

I'd leave the thick cover alone and hinge cut a load of trees, the goal being food, but more importantly, cover. I'd want that land to be the...

If it's a decent shop they probably changed the strings on it already depending on how much demo it got. The only signs are that the string itself...

I guess I'm different, but I use 2, one #50 with heavy aluminum arrows for my stands in thick, tight quarters, and one heavier poundage, with mid...

Some good advice so far, enter with the wind in your face and don't go in too far, and do it quietly. Make sure your stand sights have cover...

If it's brushed in good enough you don't need a blind at all. Look for fallen trees, rock walls/outcroppings, whatever, and make your own "blind"...

First day, with both gun and bow. Beginners luck I guess. With the bow I was in a spot that was literally infested with deer, a small overgrown 10...
