BowhunterNJ Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Welcome to the site! That's a good one! Best of luck going after him! Assuming you have your license, passed hunter ed, etc? Do you have your equipment all ready to go, have practiced and verified your broadheads are hitting where you want? Do you have a stand setup yet?

DGHUNT10 Posted November 7, 2022 Author Share Posted November 7, 2022 Hey thanks for the welcoming and the helpful questions. I have all my licenses ready to go. Got my equipment ready and have been practicing. Dont have a stand will be hunting from the ground. Unfortunately a college student and dont have money lol. Any other equipment you recommend like grunts or things like that. Or just really getting to my spot and waiting? LPJR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get in your stand and if you see him out of range and he’s not coming any closer give a few grunts. Otherwise you should be all set good luck DGHUNT10, Asbury24 and Rusty 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitetail31 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Pay attention to which way the deer are coming to your camera. You always want to set up down wind for the most part. You can buy a wind checker or better yet find milk weed. This time of year they are moving all the time. I am in stand typing this. The more time you spend in the woods right now the better. This is breeding season known as the rut. I don’t know what part of the state you are from. I am from Sussex county and would give you some equipment if you needed it. Lots of good guys on this site who have no problem helping out or donating to someone starting off. DGHUNT10, LPJR and DonW 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Download a wind checker App on your cell and compare it to your hunting spot each time you plan to hunt. There may be times when you are not able to hunt that stand. Wind is critical and is something I have been paying attention to the last couple of years. Has tipped the odds in my favor when it comes to mature bucks, especially recently... Best of luck getting on him, he is a good buck. Welcome to the site... DGHUNT10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So wont have to much vision and dont wanna spook anything by getting up all time. So not sure what i could. Clear leaves, etc from around legs and feet. Get behind a bush that would be between you and the deer approaching. Bring a chair that doesn't squeeze and hope he shows up. Oh and make sure you trim any little branches so you have a clear shot. Hunting from the ground is fun so enjoy it. electric10162, DGHUNT10 and DonW 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
