Now if you are bowhunting I will not even bother telling you about the importance of a rangefinder, that is a no brainer. However, if you are rifle hunting, a rangefinder can be more useful than you may think.

Whether you are on a hunt or just a walk through the woods, something you should never leave without is a Good Knife. What I call a utility knife a knife that you can use in any situation and not just for skinning. I always carry one in my pack no matter what, I do not always use it but it is nice to have if you do need it. I also recommend getting a Knife with a Firestarter as well as an added layer of preparation. Deer Hunting, Utility Knife, Woods, Matter, Call, Trip

If you are like I was before this article, you probably do not take the time to think about your whitetail mineral supplements or what goes into them.

You need to hunt a little differently in the rain. When it is raining, you will want to set in a stand that offers shorter shots. This is because rain quickly washes away blood trails. If you put a 60 yard shot on a buck with a bow, the chances of finding him are severely decreased. #hunting #hunt #hunter #outdoors #fishing #deerhunting #nature #bowhunting #jagd #chasse #deer #huntinglife #jakt #photography #huntingseason #caza #wildlife #archery Archery, Rainy Days
