Without a doubt the most popular out of all the deer hunting categories, white tail deer hunting is one of North America’s favorite pastime, enjoying high popularity among the young and the elderly. With well over thirty-six million whitetails and more than twelve million hunters, whitetail deer hunting is flourishing with each year that passes. This has led to numerous emerging locations where to hunt, and even to tries of populating different new areas with whitetails.

Surprisingly enough, this particular form of hunting has a century of history behind it and has only recently been popularized through intense government and private organizations encouragements, unlike other hunting branches that confront themselves with serious problems such as severe restrictions from conservation ecologists or public organizations. However, in some areas deer have grown in numbers in such a way that they are practically a nuisance; vehicle collisions with deer are a serious problem in many parts of the animal’s range, especially at night and during rutting season, causing injuries and fatalities among both deer and people. At high population densities, farmers can suffer serious economic damage by deer depredation of cash crops, especially in maize and orchards.

At a first glance, white tail hunting may not seem much different from other similar genres but it does bring more than any other can, hence its lasting popularity and appreciation. It is a practice that requires all the primal things as any other hunting kind: patience, preparation and strategy, but also necessitates a higher determination level because the results often appear long after you would expect. For instance, deer calling can take up to an hour and the results are not guaranteed. As a result, prior to arming yourself with the appropriate rifle and scopes arm yourself with steel patience and will to come home with a beautiful white-tailed buck. Apart from these, preparation is a key element and should never be treated lightly as it guarantees a successful hunting session, if done properly.

Although its complicatedness, white tail hunting pays off through absolute excitement and thrill, and that is why so many people are drown in to this sport. You can feel it just by picturing a deer finally showing up after a long wait and getting within your range of a shot. Knowing that every move you make can either lure the deer further or make it run away frightened, gasping slowly and often so that you can keep your focus, staying attentive at nothing except your target, these are true indicators of a tense and overwhelming experience.

White tail deer hunting is sure to become even more popular in the years to come through the numerous emerging locations, kind restrictions and adequate attitude from public organizations towards hunting deer. The most optimistic estimations predict that this practice will slowly but surely capture more and more regions globally, and thus we can expect to be able to hunt white-tailed deer from nearly every corner of the world.

If you fail to get any deer to hunt you can always take a quiet walk and enjoy the wilderness of the forest and the beautiful sights. And on the ways I have hunted down quite a few deer.

A hunting method favored by many is to walk the woods roads and trails as quietly as possible, usually against the wind, with the hope of jumping a deer to shoot. I enjoy this type of hunting in the less heavily populated areas. By traveling quietly while constantly watching for game, a man will see many wilderness sights that will often repay him for the walk even if he fails to bag a deer. I have killed quite a few deer by using this method and have seen many others that I did not shoot. On two occasions I have seen sleeping deer before they awoke. I permitted one of these to make a successful escape without firing a shot, but I killed the other a nice eight-point buck—as soon as it started to run. I have always considered that these two hunts were equally successful, although a memory was the only reward for one of them.

One of the most important requirements for this type of hunting is good eyesight. Not necessarily 20-20 vision, but the ability to evaluate the constantly changing scene and to distinguish the difference between shadow and concrete objects. The ability to pick out one of the best camouflage of animals in its natural habitat. This hunting vision is not a thing that we are born with. It must be acquired and cultivated by hunting experience.

Most people seem to be looking for a picture-book deer when in the woods and fail to recognize the real thing until it starts to run. It is often too late then to do anything except to take a snap shot, through the brush, at a target that is hard to hit. When hunting in this manner, I do not look for deer, but watch for anything that seems to be unusual or out of place. By doing this, I see many things, as well as an occasional deer.

Motion, of course, is the first thing that attracts the eye, but motion in the woods seldom indicates a deer. I do not know of any place where deer so out number other animals that a person could expect all motion to be that of deer. Squirrels, rabbits, foxes, minks, weasels, grouse and other birds and animals will attract the eye, so that I have always had a slight feeling of surprise when motion in the woods turns out to be a deer. Nobody should have any trouble in identifying the motion of a deer that is startled and leaves the area in a rush with an upraised flag, but the one that tries to sneak off, or stands undecided, is a different matter. These deer may appear to be something other than deer and must be positively identified before it is safe to shoot. Sometimes motion that is thought to be something else turns out to be a deer, and in such cases the person who is able to see well will benefit by having a good hunting vision.

Good eyesight is a must for hunting deer to constantly evaluate the movements of the animal. It can be acquired by experience. And the books do not teach us all the tricks of the game which you can learn from doing them.

Often the lost hunter will come to old logging or pulp cuttings and crosses them without realizing that he can follow a tote road out of the woods, or he becomes more confused in trying to solve the maze of skid-roads which cover these choppings. All of such cuttings have a road where the wood was hauled out; or, if the wood was dumped into a stream and driven to market, where supplies were hauled to the camp. The best way to find this road is to circle the chopping until the main road is found. It should be a simple matter to follow this out of the woods. If the road should end at a stream, a man may return to the chopping and look for another road or he can sometimes follow the stream. Most streams that have been used for pulp or log driving have a trail which was used by the men during the drive; and, while this trail may be overgrown, it can quite often be followed.

I knew a man who was lost on a cold and stormy day, and just at nightfall he came to the shore of a pond where there were a few summer cottages. Inside there were stoves with plenty of fuel. There was also bedding and probably food of some sort, yet this man spent a cold and uncomfortable night on the porch of one of these cottages, risking the danger of pneumonia, rather than attempt to enter the camp unlawfully. I would not recommend illegal entry, but few cottage owners would prosecute a man in a case of this sort.

Many guides and trappers have camps in the woods. They are seldom locked and a lost man is welcome to use these if he is fortunate enough to run across one of them. These camps are usually one of the first places to be checked by a search party. If a lost person is fortunate enough to run across one, he should make him- self at home and wait for aid.

When a man is lost, his mind works differently than it does under normal circumstances, and that is why it is so hard for searchers to predict what he will do and it makes the task of finding him all the more difficult. If you should ever become lost, remember this: “stay put” if you are not sufficiently woods-wise to be sure of your directions.

Nature provides a few compasses in the woods, such as moss on the north sides of tree trunks, and larger branches on the south side of the trees. Most of these are subject to error. The most dependable one I know of in the northern part of the country is the markings on exposed ledges made by glacial action during the ice age. These marks all run in the same general direction. The tips of the hemlock trees lean with the prevailing wind and this inclination is not affected by storms from other quarters. In the northeast part of the country these tips point roughly to the east. Mountains will sometimes divert the prevailing wind and thus affect the tops, but if these tips point at right angles to the glacial markings, which run roughly north and south, the lost man can usually depend on the two for his direction. This combination will give him four directions and, although they are not exact by the compass, they are exact enough to help him out of the woods.

If somebody or a hunter get lost in the wood and cannot find the way out, the best way to find this road is to circle the chopping until the main road is found.

Ok…I have anaylized Mike Vick’s case and other animal sporting events. Government sanctioned animal sports have been in place for decades and the animal rights people have had been quiet until now.

First horse racing. These animals are injected with steriods and overburdened to win races. There is money bet on their outcome. If they seriously break a leg, then they are put to sleep.

Next is dog racing…Greyhounds…Big money is wagered on their outcome. These animals are bred for racing. They are injected with dangerous steriods. If they lose their competitive edge or get injured, then they are thrown to a shitty kennel and are forgotten. Some are even put to sleep.

Finally….Deer Hunting…This sport pisses me off. How can some Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia or West Virginia red neck go and blow defenseless bambi’s brains out and get to hang the head on the wall? They seldom eat the animal. Where are the animal rights activists for this?
